Paralysis of the respiratory muscles results in death Re: Large lump on cows neck. Usuallly those kind of lumps are abcesses but that one is bigger than most I have dealt with.

The animal tries to get more air by stretching out its head and neck and protruding its tongue. Management: When you see signs of pneumonia, isolate the sick cow for antibiotic treatment. Laboratory tests are neede For example, swollen salivary glands including the parotid gland, though situated in the lower mouth/jaw, can look like a neck lump depending on the extent of the swelling.

Bottle Jaw and Mineral Imbalances. A few weeks ago while feeding sheep at night, I spotted this dude in the dark with a little problemo: whoa, bottle jaw!
