[YEA] 10/25/2009: Katiepune from Pune, Maharashtra, India writes: "Charcoal for local application
My horse hurt himself on his coronet, i.e the portion between his hoof and leg. After the usual applications of betedine etc., we applied powdered charcoal and his lameness disappeared within hours. I read this in John Dinsley's book, which I recommend to everyone as it contains a wealth of info on the various remedies of charcoal."

[YEA] 09/11/2006: Jennifer from Springtown, TX writes: "I need help with a wound on my horses front leg, just above the knee. Wound was sutured but previous owner removed pressure wrap and sutures busted out and the owner just left it to rot. I have gotten rid of all the proud flesh, and have gone from the size of a cantalope to a small hole about the size of dime, but it is a hole all the way thru the skin. Vet tried to cast so that it would heal and that was a complete disaster! I am treating it with an Equi Stim machine (micro current) with great results, just need that last little bit that is so hard to get!! Thanks in advance for your help! Oh, I am spraying the wound with calendula oil mixed with distilled water."
Ted from Bangkok, Thailand replies: "Jennifer: Try some aspirin to dissolve scar tissue. Some comfrey to help the last small healing. If infection, just use Apple Cider vinegar to kill it off."
