In ye olden days there were remedies galore for splints including blister [red or blue].
Best thing is to take care not to get them, once they appear, horse needs a rest, then maybe find a reason, if due to concussion, then you know you have been doing too much with him.
The vet will give you a better and more up to date prognosis, but a bit of Radiol wont do much, probably rest and tlc is the way to go.
As far as i recall, I used it on my broken wrist as well as splints, it was like surgical spirits with other stuff

I still have some BR from the good old days! it was used a lot for splints and as part of a homemade tendon wash. I would still use it if needed as its as good as splintex or whatever is the modern equivilent although rest is best for them if they are forming
