(Thorns). of the infection, there is ordinarily no notable interference with coitus or fertility. Now and then, however, the parts become so intensely inflamed that the bull hesitates to copu- late.

In still more severe cases, the involved mucosa becomes so swollen that the penis can no longer be protruded, and phimosis becomes established.
