Treatment

* If the cow is very distressed and gasping with head extended and tongue protruding and your veterinarian is not available, you may need to resort to an emergency rumen puncture operation. This is not for the faint-hearted and should only be a last resort. Even then, it’s best to speak to your veterinarian first to make sure it’s the best thing to do.

* The emergency operation involves plunging a sharp pointed knife into the distended rumen and making a short incision into it. Sometimes the gas will explode outwards but it may be necessary to scoop the excess stable foam out by hand. Oils like liquid paraffin or antifoaming agents like pluronics should be added to the rumen contents, then the site should be cleansed and sutured like a standard operation site.
