Heals greasy heel so quickly
By: Cynthia on 15 December 2022This is my 'go-to' product to stop greasy heel (scratches/mud fever) in its tracks, especially if you catch it early on. For areas smaller than 2 fingers wide, one or two applications soften the scabs that drop off and allow the skin to heal. It's gentle to apply and the horses hardly know you're massaging it in. There's no need to even clean the area if it's not covered in mud and dry. It works every time and I've even used it in the final stages of healing a nasty wound - see this article: https://naturalhorseworld.com/amazing-healing-of-horses-huge-flank-wound/
