牛的跛行仍然是英国乳制品行业最大的财政消耗之一。与跛行相关的疼痛和不适可能会延长，并导致受影响动物的福利状况不佳。适当的治疗往往被延误或忽视，部分原因是缺乏认识，再加上对该物种疼痛的一些常见误解和缺乏获得许可的兽医产品。本文旨在消除一些误解，并强调在治疗跛牛时控制疼痛的好处。
LAMENESS in cattle continues to be one of the largest financial drains on the UK dairy industry. Pain and discomfort associated with lameness may be prolonged and result in unacceptably poor welfare of the affected animal. All too often, appropriate treatment is delayed or neglected due, in part, to lack of recognition, compounded by some common misconceptions regarding pain in this species and the paucity of licensed veterinary products. This article aims to dispel some of those misconceptions and highlight the benefits of controlling pain when treating lame cattle.
