Ring worm on cows

Dear Colleagues
A farm friend of mine has some calves and she reports that they have all suffered from Ring worm infection.
She has asked for recommendation of a homeopathic remedy to resolve the herd's issues.
As I have never treated any animals, please advise what you would recommend.
Regards

Soroush

Soroush,

Take all the symptoms from all the cows at the same time, repertorize that out to find the genus epidemicul.

Keep us posted, we will help.

Adding to Maria's suggestion, did you ever see that wonderful article by Greg Bedayn on treating a flock of sheep for ergot poisoning with Angustura? It's a nice study in doing just what Maria recommended.
Peace,
Dale

Hi Soroush,
A great resource for homeopathy for large animals is Dr. Glen Dupree of Louisiana. www.homeopathyfortheanimals.com
He did a webinar for the National Center for Homeopathy on January 3rd and talked about treating entire herds/flocks, etc.
Fascinating work.
Kristy

This information is 'just a place to look' it comes from George Macleod's book on Horses p. 91

Hydrocotyle 6C scaly lesions - dose morning and night for 1 week
Bacillinum 200C as a constitutional, dose once a week for 3 doses
Sepia 1M associated with unpleasant musky odor, dose weekly for 4 doses
Pix liquida 6C (I don't know this remedy), for a tendency to alopecia, scaly itchy eruptions, dose 2 times a day for one week.

Please see the above as suggestions and not directives.

Macleod's books are nice to have on hand. Anything that can reduce the number of remedies we have to research is ok with me.

Maria

Agree but there is more to it.

Ringworm only affects cows/animals with an immune system deficiency, so the nutrition should be checked. GMO corn may be the issue there or vaccinations or ay other chemical that affects the thymus health. Foods containing beta-sitostrols can boost that. GMO corn (and other GMO products like soy, cotton, canola, beet, now recently also alfalfa) causes a compromised gut lining, which leads to immune system deprecation by ingestion of inappropriate undigested protein through the compromised gut wall. (Worst of all for thymus damage is any steroid usage for an reason.)

Also I would add in the Ringworm 30C nosode along with the GE for treatment, using both starting at 30C, then make it up to 34C then 55C, then 89C (and usually more is not needed).
(One place to order it is Simillimum in NZ).

Ringworm spores spread like dust, and are hard to get rid of. However it is worth checking the environment to ensure any indoor bedding areas are treated to get rid of fungus-growth promoters, such as old damp bedding etc

Once the outbreak is cleared, further ones can be prevented by using RIngworm 30C prophylaxis in the healthy animals.

Dosing can be in the water troughs if numbers are too high for reasonable individual dosing...also topically.
Diluted chlorhexidine gluconate topical application can help severe cases to get the current fungal areas under faster control. (1% to 4% chlorhexidine gluconate) The GE remedy builds cell health, nosode builds specific resistance, neither does kill fungus - but an initial kill of the fungus this way, may be helpful to get control faster if the cows have bad cases.

GE rubrics:
Consider environmental issues if any that may aggravate such as weather, time of year, housing etc
Consider how the cow feels with an itchy irritated inflamed skin, observe if they are worse indoors or out or in what weather etc, whether activity is normal, different, appetite, behavior, etc. What parts of body are most affected..... and look for maintaining causes to eliminate.

Namaste,
Irene
