Just stumbled across this on youtube

Feel sorry for the poor horse, not because of the treatment but the reason for it.

Don't watch if you are sqeamish!

 

[Seahorse]

That's horrible, why isn't he wearing gloves tho!!

 

[Tinkerbee]

ewww man thats gross....and yet oddly satisfying

yes I am a freak

 

[Eaglestone]

I won't work on mine so I am in the dark

 

[jumpthemoon]

That's gross - what on earth possesses people to put stuff like that on YouTube? Or video it in the first place???

 

[zigzag]

Gross but satisfying!

 

[Chestnuttymare]

Eagleston, it was a horse with a massive abscess on her chest and it shows the vet draining it.

Wow, she must have felt a million times better after that was done.

 

[zigzag]

What were you searching for on YouTube to get that!

*scuttles off*

Oops have pics of the vet drainin an abcess on one of our old horses neck, but it was from a flu jab so needed 'proof' to send to the company for insurance purposes.
That ones very colured, his was more like dirty water, but the smell was REALLY unbearable!!! Oh they feel so much better when its done, could see the relief on our boys face!!!

Saw something similar years ago at my previous yard.

Horse had an abcess on it's neck - and the vet opened it up - stuck a hose pipe in it flush it out - lovely thick custard came out. The horse was as good as gold, no sedation, just hugely relieved at the release of pressure.

Gross - but again, oddly and very satisfying......

Are we all weird????

 

[trundle]

Oof, that poor horse, I bet it felt a million times better after all that lot came out. Yuck....

 

[Theresa_F]

Gross but I bet the horse felt better.

Beats what I found on my bed when my cat's had one that burst - you wouldn't believe the stink.

 

[PapaFrita]

OMG how revolting yet satisfying! I've never seen so much pus! I think the ungloved finger is a bit irrelevant when you've got that much gunk in there!!
I've gone off mayonnaise a bit!!

[JM07]

how interesting.

 

[GTs]

That is not a lot - wait till you see pleura pneumonia - you get about 20 times that amount.

 

[Pedantic]

Dont think I'll bother thanks

 

[Maia]

I agree, I think its fascinating, if a little gross.

 

[bexandspooky]

Wow - That was a lot of gunk!! Bet the horse felt better for getting that lot out!

No need - it is not like puss is sterile, and he can't catch anything from the horse.

 

[Coffee_Bean]

Gah not letting me view it! Says I have to be over 18

 

[SpruceRI]

Whoa - that's gross!!!

 

[Paddywhack]

MFE and Chestnut_Mare1 thank you for the help

Mmmmm when my TB had a Haematoma 3 years ago, the Vet had to lance it and it was blood and gore and not for the faint hearted

 

[WishfulThinker]
