The bumps seem like hives, and the slightest friction over them causes
her to cringe in those areas, and the ones on the lower legs seem to
practice superation (sp?), i.e., oozing.  And some of the other horses
turned out with her have this also.  I have noticed the bumpy, oozy,
leg-zone bumps at other barns.  Could this be an allergy?  Rain rot?  Any


I'm not a vet, but my mare broke out in that when I moved to the new place.
She had an allergy to the new shavings. Would up having to put her on
steroids, antihistamines, and cleaned out every shaving in the barn. She had
hives everywhere and they oozed. Took awhile to clear and wound up losing
the hair on her legs for a while after all the oozing stopped.
