Goat Infected With CL (Caseous Lymphadenitis). What Remedies Can Help?
My goat tested positive for CL. I was wondering if there is something I can give her to prevent her from getting more pus in different areas?

Dear Nancy,
I am sorry about the diagnosis of CL disease in your goat. I am assuming you have read up on it and are using appropriate protocols to prevent the spread of the disease to other goats, if you have others, and also to the humans that care for your goat, as humans can contract this disease.
While antibiotic therapy has not proven very helpful for CL disease, I don't find information about the use of herbs to treat CL disease, but I would probably be trying turmeric as it is so effective as a natural antibiotic, when traditional antibiotics fail. And it is useful for other bacteria that causes abscesses.
I have used turmeric to successfully treat goats with staph infections.
I give 1 teaspoon to a full size goat, mixed in the feed, twice daily.
Colloidal silver is also excellent for infections when antibiotics don't work well. I make my own for myself and my animals and add lots to water for sick animals. I was giving a sick dog a half a cup of colloidal silver a day at least (and it saved her from Erlichia, a tick borne disease.)
Please let us know how it goes.

Hey Nancy,
I don't have goats, just lots of ideas, so take this for what it is worth and if it doesn't seem right for you, don't take it at all! :)
The first thing that came to mine for me was VRM4 from systemic formulas. Read up, research each ingredient listed. It may be an expensive route to go.

Please report back with your progress!
