Horse Poultice

Poultice for Horse's

A Poultice for horses is a product that draws infection, heat, and swelling from a specific area. Horse poultice can be wet or dry. A wet poultice treats infected wounds, bruising, and hoof abscesses. In contrast, a dry poultice for horses can relieve inflammation by reducing pressure and protecting wounds to aid healing.

To poultice horse legs, apply the cold or clay poultice for horses directly on the lower leg. You may wet the leg before if you like. Then, wrap using a standing bandage. 

Learning how to poultice a horse's hoof is as easy as lifting the hoof to apply to the sole and wrapping it with tape or wrap with a poultice boot for horses. Epsom salt poultice for horses is popular for the hoof.
