mine had a cut to his coronet band on his hind foot. it was a quite small cut about 1 inch wide but quite deep, an upward flap, and seemed to scab over quickly and heal, however I noticed that the scab was horny, seemed odd and just kept on growing. Never really healed so I took him to the vets, it appeared that some of the hoof stem cell tissue was growing outwards, so it would in effect form a new ergot at the front. He was operated on by my vet. a small deep round hole cut out of the coronet band to remove all the hoof wall stem cells, the first time he was operated on it grew back, so the vet did it again, a wider hole, that healed perfectly. So I would suggest you keep a close eye on the tissue that is forming, is it really hoof tissue, or good flesh? Never given him a problem, he was never lame on it, just would not heal correctly

bosworth my horse has a flap on his and hard hoof sticking out its definatly not an abcess im not sure difference between hoof tissue oe good flesh its healed all of a sudden much better with cornescrescine on it and you cant see the red tissue just looks white with green patches looks like its scabbing i hope !i think hoof will be another issue to grow back one injury is healed .
