Diseases of cattle, sheep, goats Diseases of cattle, sheep, goats and swine diseasesofcattl00mous Year: 1905 9G RHEUMATISM. Certain joints, often a pair, appear swollen, hot and painful. The synovial sacs are distended, and in the upper joints of the limb appear much more prominent than in the lower. When the patients are still \iMmP»f; Fig. 50.—Young bull suffering from infectious rheumatism. able to move they walk on three legs, but usually they remain lying permanently, and if aroused show great difficulty in rising and very acute pain in moving. General disturbance is also very marked; the temperature varies between 103° and 105° Fahr. The animals are dull, have no appetite, and exhibit intense thirst. The pulse rate and respirations are increased, and not un- commonly symptoms of grave visceral complications, such as endocarditis, pleurisy, pneumonia, etc., can be de- tected. Diarrhceic enteritis sometimes appears as a secondary development. The animals remain per- manently lying down. They can only be induced to rise with difficulty, and, Avhen moved, exhibit very acute pain. In many cases the disease then takes a rapid course and ends fatally. Death is the usual termination whenever any of the above- mentioned visceral complications exist. Kecovery is exceptional. In
