Antibiotics are probably your best bet because eucalyptus oil, for one, is toxic, and you may end up causing a chain of poisoning you don't want.

you mean intramammary antibiotics?! Is eucalyptus oil is toxic if topically used on the udder

Surely antibiotics are the way to cure mastitis in a cow and once permanent damage has been caused to the udder there is no way of curing it?

But iodine 5% ointment may dissolve fibrosis in the udder..
