Prevention of lump:

Rubble is a common health problem in horses, especially during rainy and winter periods when the ground is wet and muddy. Although Grudbye in the form of a spray and ointment for lump is an effective solution for treating the condition, it is worth remembering that prevention plays a key role in preventing the formation of skin lesions. Proper limb hygiene and skin care can significantly reduce the risk of lump in horses.

Here are some simple but extremely important steps to help you take care of the health of your horse's limbs before applying lump ointment becomes necessary.

  1. Limb hygiene - each time removing mud from the limbs after returning from pasture.

    One of the main contributors to lump formation is a damp, dirty environment. Lingering mud, puddles and dirt deposited on the skin provide an ideal environment for lump-causing bacteria. Daily grooming after returning from pasture is a key part of prevention.

    Remember to thoroughly clean your horse's limbs of mud and moisture. To this end:

    • Use a soft brush or towel to remove mud.
    • If necessary, wash your limbs with lukewarm water, but remember to always thoroughly dry your skin after washing. Moisture promotes bacterial growth.
    • Pay special attention to the area around the fetlocks, where the skin is most delicate and vulnerable to micro-trauma.
  2. Taking care of dry pastures or fencing off muddy areas.
  3. Cleanliness in the stall - regular dumping of manure, airing of the stable and dry disinfection of the ground.

    Try to provide dry and clean ground for horses in the stable and paddocks. Mud and damp litter promote skin irritation and the development of infections. In that case doctor Horse lump ointment will be an indispensable solution. Change the bedding in the stalls regularly so that the horse's limbs have as little contact with moisture and dirt as possible. If possible, avoid releasing horses into extremely muddy pastures for extended periods of time.

  4. Use of protective preparations - Grudbye spray.
  5. Support from inside the body - Adding supplements or immune-boosting herbs to the horse's diet, e.g. purple coneflower or rosehip.

Prevention is the key to healthy limbs
