  I had the same problem with a foal who was also suffering from pneumonia 
last summer.  His hocks were so raw the abrasion was almost to the bone. My 
vet, who was treating the pneumonia, cleaned and wrapped the hocks--of 
course, the wraps didn't last long.  After a lot of trial and error, two 
things finally worked--Dy's Liquid Bandage, which is manufactured by Advanced 
Biological Concepts,and PATIENCE!  The liquid bandage does what it says.  It 
covers the wound and protects it without bandaging.  I didn't scrub those 
hocks daily either.  Just put the liquid bandage in the wound and leave it 
alone.  Your horse will thank you for not causing him anymore pain.  It will 
take a while for those wounds to close, though.  It's a tough spot to heal, 
but it will heal if you keep up with it. ...Debi >>
