In the process of pig disease treatment, you must remember to use reverse thinking to treat diseases before they occur
Inpig diseasestreatmentprocess, many pig farmers easily make one mistake, that is: upon finding a pig sick, they promptly carry out diagnosis andtreatment, then wait to see the effect. If the effect is poor, they strengthen or change thetreatmentmethod; if the effect is good, they stop paying much attention to it. However, is thistreatmentapproach wrong? No! For the sick pig itself, it is absolutely not wrong. But for the other pigs, it may not necessarily be so! The specific reasons are briefly analyzed below.

I.Pig diseasesare mostly contagious

When encountering a sick pig, we must not only diagnose what kind of disease it is and adopt targetedtreatment, but also judge the infectious intensity of the disease, whether isolation is needed, how much impact it has on other pigs, and what response measures should be taken.

  II.Pig diseasesall have latency

  Pig diseasesall have a certain incubation period, either long or short, and some even accompany the pig for its entire life, while onset has certain triggering factors. Therefore, when encountering a sick pig, not only should timelytreatmentbe given, but also a little time should be spent on simple thinking and analysis of the disease encountered. For this disease, is it induced by the environment or by recent dietary factors? Can these factors also cause other pigs to contract this disease? Once considered, you will know how to solve it.

III. Herd diseases often start from individuals

Herd diseases in pigs often start from one or two or three, spreading from a point to a patch and then to the whole surface. Therefore, if a pig is found to be sick, a correct judgment should be made based on the degree of contagion of the disease and the susceptibility of other pigs. Should disinfection be strengthened, should medication be given to the whole herd for prevention, should emergency vaccination be used, or should the diet be improved? When the judgment is accurate and the measures are appropriate, the loss will naturally be minimized.

IV. The spread and transmission of diseases all have their routes and vectors

When encountering a sick pig, we must not only judge the contagiousness of the disease, but also know its transmission vectors and routes. Based on the judgment, it is convenient to take effective measures in time to cut off and stop its continued expansion, so as to safeguard the safety and health of the entire pig herd.

V.Pig diseasesoften come in pairs

A singlepig diseaseis mostly not frightening; secondary infection is what gives people a headache. This is especially true for those viral, acute, highly contagious, and easily fatal diseases. We must not only make timely and accurate diagnosis andtreatment, but also quickly prevent and control the secondary infections they cause, and even more reflect on our own gaps in prevention and control, formulate timely and efficientprevention and treatmentmeasures, minimize the infection rate of the pig herd as much as possible, and reduce the impact and loss to the lowest level.
