Lumpy Jaw or Abscess? How to tell the difference.

Описание: Lumpy Jaw (Actinomyces bovis) is very hard to treat. The bacteria hides within bone, stimulating the bone to lay down extra bone, creating hundreds of micro abscesses encased in bone. This makes them very hard to treat. Adding Sodium Iodide to broad spectrum antibiotic therapy can help quite a bit. Abscesses on the other hand are very easy treat and generally heal very easily.
