Witchhazel

Can you use witch hazel on horses for brusing as you would for humans

 

[miamibear]

Not sure but its brill stuff for humans, i always have a bottle in!!

Thought I might try it on her sole (see previous stud post) as farrier said it may have caused a bruise.

I've used witch hazel for a cooling affect but arnica gel or cream is good for bruises.

I have Gold Label witch hazel and arnica gel, it's really cold stuff! Works on me, so far *touch wood* I haven't had to use it on a horse but that's what it's meant for anyway!

I use to use it alot around the girth area to prevent girth sores. Worked a treat.

Great thanks, I'm going to soak some cotton wool in it and bung the hole with it
