My thoroughbred horse has a skin problem?
Molly T asked:
Hi, I have a 9 year old thoroughbred gelding. He has developed some scabby lumps on his shoulders that have now seemed to move down along his back. The lumps come off with the fur and leaves a weepy sore. He is rugged most of the time so I’m pretty sure its not rain scald. He is otherwise in really good health with a very shiny coat. Just wondering if this could be a fungal infection and what I could do about it. Thanks

Horse skin problems.back again. :(?
Maddie Bear asked:
My filly’s skin issues are back, but this time I’ve realized that she is rubbing - her mane is sticking straight up in some areas because she’s rubbed a lot of it out.
I ordered a 16 oz. bottle of Micro-Tek medicated spray off the Internet yesterday and I’m confident it’ll help - do you guys think her hair problems will also start to fade out as the weather gets colder and the pests start dying?
Thanks so much.

Skin problems with my horse?
riley! asked:
My horse has scabs on his hocks, it looks like extremely dry skin. The one on his left leg however is starting to form into a cut. We’ve been using bag balm on it and it doesn’t seem to be working, he is susceptible to skin problems and has had fungus on his tail and mane before, but that is now cleared up. Does anyone know what this could be and a way to treat it?
Thanks!
