help! sick goat with difficulty pooping, frequent urination, and swollen glands

If this is a billy goat they will do the lippy peeing thing cause they are billy goats. Call your local large animal vet for proper advice and treatment. I would not delay. They can offer the best solution. Most likely needs more than home remedies. I raised goats for 4 H years ago.

 

hows his rumen action? he might need more roughage; secondly, here in israel, there is a special feed only for bucks exactly because of that urinary thing... but if he's not working, then no need for pellets or grains for that matter; increase roughage, either way it will help with both constipation and diahrea; give him a tablespoon full of bio active yougurt, (if he will eat it, olet hm lick it, if not, then just pop some in his mouth, he'll swallow); worm again, (ivermec injection not oral, works better)...

thyroid glands? hmm, never ran in to that one; the dribbling pee can also be the urinary stones too; i think this one is a definate vet check ;

hows his weight? also, check his testes; i had a buck that used to leap any fence anywhere, in the end, he fell on his balls or banged them up when going over , causing injury which led to infection and eventually after months of heart break/antibiotics, neutering, and any other treatment possible, he died. from septicemia as the infection spread up the tubes leading from the testes, leached in to his blood
.. the vet told me that is a common problem among the 'escapee' type bucks that jump. they damage their testes with the impact (maybe hitting the edge of a fence), he was a huge cyprion red fellow, my first love (of a buck goat)/so put your hand down there, and check them: swollen, cold/hot more then normal, change in colour, pain, etc. (you might need two for that particular check). also for the dribbling, can u see if there is blood in the urine? are there secretions other then that? green/infectios looking stuff around the sheath?
is he doing the lippy/peeing style of activity? if yes, then the dribbles can be normal, some bucks are like that. but if not, and if he is straining then it sound slike something else.
