Get the veterinarian out immediately. The rectal prolapse in your bull calf could merely be a symptom of something more serious that needs to be addressed right away.
A surgical intervention called an A& P [anal and perineal ] repair.
Surgery of the ano-rectal region is done in the jack knife position like surgery for plies, pilonidal sinus and rectal prolapse
This test may be ordered for the evaluation of perianal or anal pain, hemorrhoids, rectal prolapse, digital rectal examination that shows a mass, perianal abscess and condyloma
No you dont have a rectal exam with it, at least I have never.... Rectal exams are done by different doctors.
The word calf is spelt as you have done in the question.
Rectal examination is performed in most instances as an annual routine procedure in colorectal cancer screening
There are three main methods to castrate a bull calf:1. Banding: Put the calf on its side, pull the two testicles in the sac, and with the elastrator (with a green rubber cheerio-like ring on it already), stretch the ring so that it fits over the testes and sits at the neck of the scrotum close to the body. Release the ring so that stays there, then release the calf. There's another form of banding that can be done on older bull-calves, but they need to be restrained in a squeeze chute to have the operation done on them.2. Cutting: This is a method commonly done by ranchers at branding time. When the calf is held down to be branded, the scrotum of the bull calf is slit open by a clean sharp knife, the testes are slid out of the scrotum, and the knife is used to cut them off. The cut has to be made at an angle, not straight across.3. Emasculator: The scrotum is cut open with a scalpel or clean sharp knife exposing the testes. The emasculator is put on the spermatic cord above the testes, and the handles squeezed together so the emasculator crushes and squeezes the blood vessels and cuts them off. When crushed hard enough, the testes are simply removed. Emasculators are mostly used on older bulls, as the instrument is too big to be used on young bull calves.
This all depends on the producer. Some like to castrate a bull calf when they're barely a few days old because this immediately inhibits the bull calf's testosterone production, and also prevents any accidental breeding if the herd is particularly fertile. Castrating early is also much less stressful and less painful for the calf than if it were done later. However, other producers like to wait to castrate their bull calves to take advantage of the added growth potential that bulls have over steers, and consequently make for higher weaning weights (and more profit) when they're sold later on after being backgrounded. But, castrating later can make it more stressful for the weaner bull-turned-steer calf because of not only the stress of being separated from his mother, but also the pain that he experiences, making him eat less and gain less during this period, making him more susceptible to illnesses like pneumonia or shipping fever.
If no efforts are done to treat the calf immediately, it will die.
A prolapse cow be exposed to what? A bull? Well, as soon as she's healed up and as soon as she is back to normal again, which can take as long as a week to a whole month. So don't be in a hurry to "expose" a prolapsed cow to anything. As a matter of fact, I would probably ship her because there's a likely chance that once she's done it, she may do it again.
use instilla gel for the pain then with a thin sterile cloth / wetwipe place over prolapse bowel ease in then fin of with a finger up the rectom to make sure its all the way in job done
