Cow swollen after dosing

    A cow that I was dosing with a dosing gun has developed a large swollen patch between her neck and her chin. She isn't chewing the cud properly and it takes a lot of time for her to eat.
    Any suggestions on what could have happened?

    Sounds like a tongue injury.

    Thanks for the reply. I was thinking maybe the cow broke a tooth or something.

    It wouldn't hurt to contact your vet as some treatment may be necessary.
