Foot and Mouth Disease (FMD) is a highly contagious viral infection that affects cloven-hoofed animals such as cattle, swine, and sheep. The main symptoms of FMD include fever and blisters on the tongue, gums, and inside the mouth, which can lead to difficulty in swallowing or eating. Other signs that indicate FMD include excessive drooling, lameness, and weight loss. FMD is not usually fatal in animals, but it can have a significant impact on their appetite and production. If you suspect that your animal has FMD, consult a veterinarian immediately.
