YouTube video with vet explaining different types of wound and how horses heal. There are demonstrations of how to dress and bandage wounds at different locations on the horse – foreleg, hind leg, on the hock, above the hock and the foot.

Be grateful of your horse has no injuries last year our horse air mailed our barb wired fence and had to get stitches she was carrying her foal mags and didn’t lose it my babe was born April 24 2012 and silvers scars from jumping have faded so we have to redo it the fence. Mags is very fast silver turned out much better but when silver jumped I was riding and my horse freaked he took off and I pulled him up and just screamed…… I thought she was dead! But mags or SIlver Magna should I say just got over pneumonia and now you are reading about the 2015 kentuckey derby winner

I loved this article. I didn’t know that moisture contributes to granulation. Got to keep that in mind with my own wounds!
