abstract
Cattle with lumpy skin disease (LSD) have low mortality and high morbidity rates due to an acute viral infection that results in severe economic losses. In the Bikaner area of Rajasthan, the suggested study was conducted on adult cross cattle of similar age groups exhibiting the characteristic clinical indications of Lumpy skin disease at private dairy farms as well as on animals of individual holdings. A clinical examination was used to validate this, and PCR was the method that was used for LSDV confirmation in the investigation. Clinical evaluations were performed on the thirty-two animals that were chosen for this experiment. The main clinical signs of LSD-affected cattle included pyrexia, lacrimation, lethargy, enlargement of lymph nodes, skin nodules, and oedema. Clinical vital parameters showed that rectal temperature, heart rate, and respiration rate were significantly (p<0.05) greater, while significantly (p<0.05) decreased rumen motility.
