Gelding nicked inside of hind leg. Bled a bit but not big enough for a stitch etc.
I cleaned it and blue sprayed it but wasnt happy that 5 days later still bit puffy and warm. Now only puffy low down and not up leg and only warm not hot. Nothing coming out of cut and clean.
So it was bandaged to keep clean and he was given 10mls antib just incase infection incase there is and it goes into the joints etc.
Bandage off today but swollen although not lame and am hoping a day in the field and it will go down from walking around.
Any other advice?
