💡Observe Angioedema in dog, often caused by an allergic reaction, manifests as localized swelling, particularly in the face, lips, tongue & throat. This swelling is due to increased vascular permeability, leading to fluid leakage into the subcutaneous tissues. In animals, angioedema can be triggered by various allergens, including food, medications, insect bites, and environmental allergens.

💡Did you know? When it comes to sedating horses, not all drugs are risk-free for every patient. 📍Acepromazine, a commonly used tranquilizer, must be used with caution in stallions. Why? It can cause penile prolapse (paraphimosis) serious complication that may impact a stallion's breeding or working potential. As veterinary professionals, understanding drug contraindications isn't just about safety - it's about ensuring long-term health and value, especially in performance or breeding animals. 🩺Clinical insight matters. Always think beyond the syringe. Half Baked Veterinarian ✨ -Your trusted source of veterinary information!

🩺𝐃𝐱: Bartholin Gland Cyst 💡𝙲𝚘𝚗𝚏𝚒𝚛𝚖 the presence of Unilateral Bartholin Gland Cyst after aspiration of thick, milky fluid. - Notice the pink, bulging cyst protruding between the vul*var lips — 𝕥𝕙𝕖 𝕔𝕝𝕒𝕤𝕤𝕚𝕔 𝕤𝕚𝕘𝕟 𝕠𝕗 𝔹𝕒𝕣𝕥𝕙𝕠𝕝𝕚𝕟 ℂ𝕪𝕤𝕥. 💉𝕋𝕣𝕖𝕒𝕥𝕞𝕖𝕟𝕥: The cyst responded to the injection of 10 ml of 2% Lugol's iodine into the cavity following evacuation of the content. 📍𝙋𝙧𝙤𝙘𝙚𝙙𝙪𝙧𝙚: ▪️Wash with KMnO₄ solution ▪️Caudal epidural with Lignocaine 2% @ 1ml/100kg BW ▪️Fluid evacuated ▪️Infuse 10 ml of 2% Lugol’s iodine ▪️Inj. Meloxicam(IM) ➕ Chlorpheniramine (IM) ▪️ Recommend Mineral mixture supplementation ▪️Antibiotics (if secondary infections) 📑𝙊𝙪𝙩𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙚: Can be recover completely within 3 days. No recurrence. 🛑𝐃𝐞𝐬𝐜𝐫𝐢𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧: The glands of Bartholin which secrete mucus most actively at estrus, have a tubuloalveolar structure. They are 2 in number, one on each side of vestibule; each has a single duct lined with transitional epithelium which opens in the lateral wall of vestibule about 2.5 cm caudal to vag*ina. 📍Formation of retention cysts arising from occlusive lesions of duct, as in metaplasia of lining epithelium associated with chronic hyper- estrogenism in cows with ovarian follicular cysts,Trauma & extension of local necrotic vag*initis leading to obstruction of duct opening as causes for Bartholin gland cyst seen in older cows. 📌 Usually presence of cystic Bartholin is unilateral, which disturb shape of external genitalia & a degree of vag*initis occur. with this defect, considered presence of Bartholin glands as reservoirs for pathogenic organims. 🖋️𝙉𝙤𝙩𝙚: The cyst cause no problems at parturition nor it interfere with conception. However, since vul*var lips are kept opened by cystic enlargement, contamination of vag*ina, vestibule & vulva with feces & dirt may occur. ▪️May interfere with AI. ▪️Often mistaken for prolapse ▪️ Does not affect calving /conception.

💥Ringer lactate solution is considered one of the ideal solutions, especially in cases of fluid resuscitation, but there is a warning to prevent its use in patients who have liver diseases, what is the reason behind this prevention? ⭕️ Let's go back in the story from the beginning Ringer lactate contains the following ingredients: ➖ Na+ ➖ CL- ➖ K+ ➖ Ca+ ➖ plus Na lactate ⭕️ This lactate is transformed by the liver into HCO3 and thus it is equivalent to any acidity in the blood and things are back to normal if there was already metabolic acidosis. ⭕️ But in the case of liver disease, this process will not take place and the lactate will not turn into HCO3. Instead, lactate will accumulate and increase acidosis (lactic acidosis), so it is forbidden to use it in patients with liver disease. ❌❌ Half Baked Veterinarian 🩺

𝗜’𝗠 𝗕𝗔𝗖𝗞 – 𝗕𝗬 𝗦𝗜𝗡𝗚𝗨𝗟𝗔𝗥 𝗗𝗘𝗠𝗔𝗡𝗗 🎉 Someone said “we miss your posts” and my weak academic soul gave in. Had to take a break… vet school chewed me up, didn’t spit me out—just kept me like an impaction blocking progress AND venous return. But I’m back now. Healing, surviving, still diagnosing my own burnout. Actual content incoming… probably. 🧡
