Hi... I've got a goat who's got mastitis, and I've used most of the antibiotics, and it's still the same

Malik Yahia Ali If it's possible for you to isolate the fungus or bacteria that's causing the mastitis, it might be possible to treat the problem with an antibiotic that has a history of killing that type of pathogen. Certain types of pathogens that become very well established in the udder over a long period of time and cause chronic mastitis may become almost impossible to eradicate and they often leave scar tissue in the udder that does not allow the udder to function properly.
