I searched the forums and did not come up with anything extremely recent.
Horse: 11 year old gelding with 3 socks. Right hind is the worst, the other two white legs have some scabs. He lives in a dry lot. We have no mud currently because it’s very dry.
I have been washing his legs several times a week with Elite Equine medicated shampoo, then applying Sore no more the sauce and Absorbine Silver honey spray.
His legs had improved, but were not cured. This has been on going since the end of July. Last weekend we rode 3 days in a row in damp sand. His legs were very pink, irritated and puffy by Sunday.
I have found some homemade scratches remedies on COTH in my searches, but I wanted to see if there was any formula more up to date that people have tried. Most of the recipes I saw contained Desitin (or another brand of diaper cream), but the ingredients beyond that varied some.
Any help is very much appreciated. Thank you!
