Schreiner's



I used Schreiner's on my own crushed toe (horse-induced injury) with great
results (note that Schriener's is not indicated for use in humans).  I keep
a bottle in the tack room and another in the trailer.  I should get a third
bottle for medicine cabinet just in case it is needed for off-label use.
Great stuff and good for horses, too :-)
