[QUOTE="Running Arrow Bill, post: 55488, member: 9"] I hear you! FINALLY, after 10 days of clouds, mist, drizzle, and cool, the sun came out this morning here in Panhandle (we're on US 83)! May be short-lived??? Our ground is saturated, even though we have approx. 40' deep sand here (based on our well driller's log). Some (non-medical advice) suggestions??? Might try a Betadine shampoo of horse (just be sure it's warm enough!!; or, if you have a heated barn to bathe horse in and thoroughly dry horse off afterwards!) or some other mild treatment (such as 1% iodine wash of the spot). NOTE: IF you shampooed horse, remember that it would remove protective oils from its coat which help horse to shed water and stay warmer). Might also just brush the spot, treat it topically with something. Or...just "Wait and See" and let nature treat it (assuming it doesn't get any worse in meantime). Or, could have your Vet check him out! [/QUOTE]
