Re: [RC] Scurfing *not* caused by girthss?? - Chris Paus

I got the best remedy for this from my vet this summer
when my gelding got a nasty skin condition on his leg.
It's called Cortisoothe. It's a cortisone shampoo. The
vet instructed me to shampoo Zab's leg daily and let
the shampoo sit on there for about 10 minutes before I
hosed it off. It was amazing. His skin went from
nasty, weeping and inflammed to healed with new hair
growing back in about three days!

that his
winter coat was coming in strong.  It cleared up & I
rode Storm on a 50 2 weeks ago, same thing happened,
not quite as bad, but skin flaked all over his sides
& girth, and he is constantly biting at the area. I
wondered if it were due to the change in coat, but
it didn't happen last year, so I thought maybe
fungus. I've never had this happen before with any
horse. I hope it is just a change of season event. I
have been & still use a Toklat fleece girth, &
alternate between a Woolback & a Coolback pad.
