Any ideas on how to heal old wound to coronet band?

[wench]

New pony has an old injury to coronet band where it's assumed its a wire injury. Lumpy bit of proud flesh above the coronet band, and then a bit more stretching around the side. There's also a crack in the hoof resulting from this.

Will ask the farrier to put a bridge on the crack, to try and get the hoof growing properly again. However, can anyone come up with any suggestions of how to tackle the proud flesh on the coronet band? The injury is approx 3 years old, and was never dealt with when it occured.

Difficult without having seen it but I'd try some Equaide as I know it won't do any harm, and is good on proud flesh. Its great stuff, I'm always extolling its virtues on here (although I have no link to the company whatsoever). Take a look at their website:

Customer service is good, it'll arrive very quickly. Also it says at the bottom of the page that if after 2 weeks you are pleased, you can get a refund. I've never had to!

Or give them a call, and see if they'd recommend it. Obviously there are other products out there, but I don't like the idea of using anything corrosive
