Description
Digital dermatitis was characterized by a round or oval lesion between the ball of the claw and the dew-claw, accompanied by lameness. Aetiology was unknown. The condition (which differed from interdigital necrosis) was investigated in 2 herds. It did not seem to have been reported in Germany before. The best treatment was cleaning of the lesion and application of an antibiotic or antiseptic
