Re: [RC] best way to prevent scratches?? - Karen Everhart

Jennifer,

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.
