The aim of the research was to study dynamics of planimetric data in treatment of local pododermatitis in calcaneal region of hooves in cattle. The results of clinical studies showed that a single application of Vet-Kopin ointment (a. i. tetracycline) led to reduction in the area of pathology, decrease in soreness; after five times application (on 1st, 3rd, 7th, 14th and 21st days) - clinical signs of inflammation disappeared, bottom of pathology was replenished with healthy granulation tissue, followed by epithelialization and scarring of surrounding tissues throughout the study. It was found that by the 3rd day in the control and experimental groups, area of ulcerative surface in hooves significantly decreased in relation to the initial result and amounted to 74.21 and 58.95%, respectively. The maximum index of healing rate (28.44%) was observed in the control group on the 14th day, and in the experimental group - on the 3rd day and was 41.05%. The area of the damaged surface in the hoof area per day in relation to the previous result was maximum in the control group on the 21st and 28th days and amounted to 7.28 and 7.26%, respectively; in the experimental group on the 3rd and 28th days it was 10.26 and 13.6%, respectively. Recovery of animals in the control group averaged 30 1.390, and in the experimental group - 23.9 0.809 at p 0.01. Therefore, the use of Vet-Kopin ointment results in reducing the healing time by an average of 6.1 days compared with the control group and increases the effectiveness of treatment of ulcerative defects in orthopedically diseased cattle.
