Recently, many African swine fever epidemics have appeared in our country, which has troubled many farmers. Some farmers are very worried about whether their pig farms are also affected when they find that their pigs have symptoms such as loss of appetite, fever and redness. Next, I will give you a detailed introduction to the symptoms of African swine fever, in order to detect and take measures to control the epidemic.
Symptoms of African Swine Fever: Elevated Body Temperature in Pigs
Pigs infected with the virus will have a body temperature of 40°C or even above 41°C, they will stop eating, their bodies will have erythema, and their mental state will become bad. Because African swine fever is also a type of swine fever, elevated body temperature and anorexia are very important characteristics. These symptoms usually manifest within 1-2 days of the disease, but not all pigs infected with African swine fever develop these symptoms.
Symptoms of African swine fever two: pigs will have a high fever or fever after the low body temperature
After the emergence of fever symptoms, farmers may give pigs a fever reduction needle, but the body temperature can not drop, and even the body temperature is lower than 38°C. Special attention should be paid in this case, because the fever after general high fever and common swine fever infection can be controlled. If this persistent low temperature occurs in sick pigs, it may be one of the symptoms of the late stage of African swine fever infection.

Symptoms of African swine fever three: some pigs will bleed after injection
This is because the African swine fever virus destroys platelets in pigs, causing bleeding after injections. This is also one of the typical symptoms of African swine fever.
Symptoms of African swine fever four: vomiting
In the later stages of African swine fever, most sick pigs will vomit. This symptom is also due to the virus disrupting the intestinal and gastrointestinal functions. It is worth noting that once vomiting symptoms occur, the pig is usually already in a more serious stage of illness, and it may be too late to take treatment measures. Therefore, farmers should take timely measures to prevent and control the symptoms of vomiting in pigs.
