Rash, suggestions please

[Saf]

Hi

Saf has had a rash on her chest for about 2 to 3 weeks now, started as one small lump like a bite but hard to touch and she hated it being squeezed opps

Then spread into loads of little lumps some hard and some tiny with small heads and the hair came off the small scabs. Has a small bald patch hair starting to grow now.
Had a scraping done by the vet and nothing grew?
He said use Fuciderm (sp)
Well it is no better and seems to be around the front of the rug, hence bought new sheet just in case, but always wash whatever is next to skin and have not changed washing powder.

Ideas please, do I wash every day or try to leave alone etc

Sounds very similar to what one of the hunters here gets. We used 1% steroid cream on it and it actually has not reappeared. It was the E45 steroid cream that you get at the chemist from behind the counter. I can't for the life of me remember what it was called..........

REMEMBERED!!

Hydrocortisone cream.

Thats exactly what happend to snoop over his back.

Vet took scrapes nothing came back just a general infection. He had 10 days of powder antibiotics - a couple of sachets of bute and an anti fungal shampoo.
We're all clear now

Nothing shifted it tho, and you know how bad snoop got i.e napping and rearing!
He wouldnt even tolerate a goats hair brush over them in the end.

It was a reaction to a fly bite btw.
