Abstract

Lumpy Skin Disease (LSD) is a disorder which is affecting most of the animals and thus is spreading to nations worldwide and is becoming as an epidemic in current times and serves as a platform to turn attention towards its rising disorder. It is a carrier spread disease transmitted by different arthropods. This article provides detailed information about the LSD, LSDV, and diagnosis (not by regular blood tests but using special techniques, such as fluorescence, antibodies tests, and ELISA), treatment of this fatal disease by both pharmacological and non-pharmacological factors, methods to reduce the risk of LSD. Still there is no permanent cure for this disease but healthcare professionals are prescribing some medicines to prevent the spread of this life-threatening disease. But quarantine of the infected animal is the first aid to be provided in case of absence of medication. LSD is a severe and sometimes fatal infectious disease affecting cattle. LSD mainly spread through skin nodule. It is believed to be pandemic in Africa, mainly a disease of cattle with 20% survival rate and 2% chances of case fatality. In some cases, the use of strong antibiotic therapy has proven effective. However, before the widespread implementation of live attenuated vaccination programs, the disease continued to spread across regions, primarily following a seasonal pattern, despite the application of various control and containment measures. To date, the most probable vectors for the transmission of LSDV are blood-feeding arthropods, including flies, mosquitoes, and ticks. Recent clinical studies suggest that the common housefly may also play a significant role in spreading LSDV; however, this hypothesis has yet to be validated in a controlled clinical environment.

Keywords: Epidemic, spread, diagnosis, pharmacological treatment, non-pharmacological treatment, quarantine of the infected animals
