Deep Wound Near the Knee

Are you putting a standing wrap on her? If so, try stopping or leaving it off for half a day.

That may be preventing drainage down the leg.

Also, turn her out for a few hours, if you have a place to put her out alone. Walking around grazing, even trotting around a bit will improve circulation.

Haven’t been wrapping her for the last two weeks, just daily washing and applying ointment. I unfortunately don’t have anywhere but her two acre pasture to turn her out in to and I’m afraid fireworks will happen as soon as the gate is closed and halter is off. There is a smaller half acre pasture on the property but three sides of it are up against another pasture to a mare that she despises and vice versa, the mare is on full time pasture no stall, and I dont need her getting razzed running the fence line. I’m pretty limited to letting her out to her big pasture.
