The present experiment was conducted on 48 surgically created wounds in 12 apparently healthy goats of either sex of one and a half to two years of age and weighing between 10 and 15 kg body weight. Four skin depth wounds of 2x2 cm (two on either side) of the dorsomedian plane in the thoracolumbar region were aseptically created under local analgesia with 2% lignocaine HCl. After creation, the wounds were dressed with sterile liquid paraffin impregnated gauze piece and maintained in position with micropore adhesive tape.The results of this study indicate that topical and/or oral administration of cow urine accelerates wound healing in goats.
