Naaal] I 9° [Nephritis 



Nasal Polypus: 



Symptoms: A growth with a narrow neck 

 which forms in the nasal passage causing 

 irritation, sneezing and snorting, a purulent 

 discharge which may sometimes be tinged with 

 blood. 



Treatment : Consists in removing the 

 growth by ligature if it can be got at, or by 

 an ecraseur or a snare ; but it is a surgical 

 case, and a veterinary surgeon should be 

 consulted. 



Necrosis (Diseased Bone) : 



Symptoms : Generally the result of some injury. 

 The parts are swollen, inflamed, and very painful, 

 and generally an abscess forms, which, if not 

 lanced, bursts, discharging a thick, creamy and 

 often offensive-smelling pus. The bone, which 

 is generally dead, lies exposed at the bottom of 

 the wound, which does not heal permanently until 

 the dead bone comes away. 



Treatment : At first, hot linseed-meal poultices 

 dusted over with powdered charcoal are to be 

 applied, and continued for some days after 

 the abscess is open. Then lint saturated with 

 carbolic oil, one in forty, is to be placed over 

 the wound, and kept in place with a bandage. 

 As a rule, after some time the dead bone 

 exfoliates and comes away of itself, and the 

 wound then soon heals, but in many cases, an 

 operation is necessary to remove the dead 

 bone. 



Nephritis (Inflammation of the Kidneys) : 



Symptoms : Generally commences suddenly
