Help to Ganesh Ram's Camel
In the village of Peepli Dhani, an owner named Ganesh Ram brought his camel to us. The camel had not been eating well for a few days and showed signs of dullness. After examination, the CRC vet determined that the camel was suffering from a rise in temperature and dehydration.
Symptomatic treatment was provided, including the administration of fluids, antibiotics, and anti-inflammatory medications. Additionally, the CRC vet gave some oral medications for further use. By the following week, the camel was eating well.
Administration of intra-venous medicines
