Chronic Coughing
If the buffalo is suffering from allergies, it might develop a chronic cough. This can be quite distressing for the animal and can be a clear indication of allergies. The animal may seem to repeatedly cough in an attempt to clear its airways.
Skin Irritations
Skin irritations such as rashes or hives are commonly associated with allergies. These may appear as red, irritated, or inflamed patches on the skin, normally coupled with excessive itching, which may trigger constant scratching.
Increased Shedding
Allergies may cause the buffalo to shed more of its coat than normal. This excessive hair loss can be due to the body's reaction to the allergen, creating a heightened state of stress which impacts the health of the buffalo's coat.
Excessive Mucus Production
One of the key signs of an allergic reaction is an increase in mucus production. This may result in a runny nose or drooling, and is the body's attempt to rid itself of the allergen.
Swollen Eyes
Buffaloes with allergies may have swollen eyes that may also appear red and irritated. This is due to the body reacting to the allergen and increasing the amount of histamine which consequently results in swelling.
Digestive Problems
Just like humans, animals including buffaloes can also experience digestive problems due to allergies. This might include symptoms like diarrhea, vomiting, or constipation as the body attempts to remove the allergen.
