Re: [RC] best way to prevent scratches?? - Karen EverhartJennifer,Here is what I use for treatment. Would work great as a preventative. 1 tube generic hydrocortisone 1.25% (like Cortaid) 1 tube generic diaper rash treatment (like Desitin) 1 tube triple antibiotic ointment (like Neosporin) 1 tube generic antifungal cream (like Lotramin) Mix all this together in a disposable container. Slather on the pastern as needed. If you use a spatula, you will have less of a mess on your hands. The antifungal/antibiotic treats any infection. The steroid helps relieve swelling. The diaper rash ointment repels dirt and moisture. It is a great recipe and very inexpensive. Karen Everhart MEd.
