180 LUMBAGO. 



A A, in doses of twenty drops, should be alternated 

 with that for RHEUMATISM, B B, at the intervals 

 mentioned above. The use of these two remedies 

 will control every form of this disease. 



Lumbago. 



This is merely a form of Rheumatism, locating it- 

 self upon the muscles of the loins. It may be mis- 

 taken for some other or different disease, and hence 

 its symptoms should be known. 



SYMPTOMS. Af:er some exposure, especially to 

 cold or wet, or a draft of air, the cow will suddenly 

 become lame of one leg, without other signs to ex- 

 plain the nature of ihe attack. Another leg may 

 then be affected, while the first one seems better or 

 quite well. Some pain and heat may be discovered 

 in one of the joints ; and then the muscles of the 

 back show more clearly the location of the disease ; 

 or from the first the disease may be referable to this 

 point; the animal yields and flinches when they are 

 pressed upon, in consequence of the pain; the beast 

 is not able to walk, or does so very stifBy and awk- 

 wardly, in consequence of increased pain from 

 movement. These attacks may continue for a time, 

 disappear and return again, in consequence of new 

 exposure. 



TREATMENT. The SPECIFIC for RHEUMATISM, 

 B B, should be given, a dose of .twenty drops, 

 three times per day. A few doses will promptly re- 

 lieve.
