Abstract: Bovine papillomatosis, a condition caused by the bovine papillomavirus (BPV), manifests as warts on the skin and mucous membranes of cattle, leading to discomfort and potential vision impairment. This case study explores the successful treatment of periocular warts in a 3 - year - old Domestic cow using the homeopathic remedy Thuja mother tincture. The cow, presenting with multiple wart - like growths around both eyes, received an oral dosage of 10 drops of Thuja mother tincture mixed with 20ml water twice daily for four weeks. Significant improvements were observed, including a substantial reduction in wart size and number, and eventual resolution of the periocular warts. The cow's vision and overall comfort markedly improved over the treatment period. This case illustrates the potential efficacy of Thuja as a non - invasive, cost - effective alternative to conventional treatments such as surgical removal, cryotherapy, and autogenous vaccines. The results suggest that Thuja's antiviral and immune - modulating properties can effectively manage bovine papillomatosis, offering a valuable complementary approach in veterinary medicine. Further research and clinical trials are recommended to validate and understand the broader applications of homeopathic remedies in livestock health management.
