Countermeasures: For yellow dysentery, pay attention to the temperature of the piglet warming box and the sow's postpartum anti-inflammatory care; affected piglets should receive timely symptomatictreatmentand timely fluid replacement to reduce mortality; fatty diarrhea requires increasing the sow's feed intake and balancing nutrition.
2. Onset 3-10 days after birth, grayish-white foul-smelling watery stool, low mortality. May be piglet white dysentery or rotavirus infection.
Countermeasures: Piglet white dysentery is generally caused by low temperature or poor environmental hygiene; rotavirus: sows need to be vaccinated in advance with the triple vaccine against transmissible gastroenteritis, epidemic diarrhea and rotavirus.
3. Onset around 7 days after birth, bloody watery stool, high mortality. May be piglet red dysentery or necrotizing enteritis.
Countermeasures: Both of these are bacterial diseases, and antibiotics can be used symptomatically fortreatment; for red dysentery, antibiotics can be administered orally before suckling as prevention; for necrotizing enteritis: inject ceftiofur hydrochloride intramuscularly into affected pigs once daily for 3 consecutive times. For those with bloody stool, give an additional intramuscular injection of a blood tonic.
4. Vomiting and diarrhea, pigs of all sizes affected, short disease course, high mortality. May be transmissible gastroenteritis, epidemic diarrhea, or poisoning.
Countermeasures: Transmissible gastroenteritis or epidemic diarrhea requires symptomatictreatment, and sows need to be vaccinated before farrowing for prevention; for poisoning, detoxification measures should be taken according to the situation, such as oral administration of glucose oral solution.
5. Onset in winter and spring, watery diarrhea, rapid dehydration, mostly in suckling piglets, and they lie on the ground unable to stand. May be rotavirus infection or hypoglycemia.
Countermeasures: For rotavirus, sows should be vaccinated in advance; for hypoglycemia, pay attention to keeping piglets warm, and promptly assist piglets in taking enough colostrum and regular milk; if the sow's milk supply is poor, promptly promote lactation or choose fostering and artificial feeding.
Special note: For all suckling piglets with diarrhea, in addition to symptomatictreatment, body fluids must also be replenished in a timely manner. Intraperitoneal injection or oral rehydration salts can be used, along with active supplementation of comprehensive liquid vitamins and high-quality probiotics, which greatly helps repair the intestinal mucosa, promote appetite, regulate intestinal flora balance, and restore health.
