Did you know that some of the most difficult wounds to heal on horses are leg wounds?
This is because there is less underlying tissue to support wound healing, more tension, poor blood supply and the tissue is always moving. No to mention that it͛s often harder to keep these wounds clean and dry!
However, research conducted by Dr Andrea Bischofberger at the University Veterinary Teaching Hospital in Camden NSW Australia, has found that applying Mānuka Honey to a significant wound on a leg led to a 27% faster healing time! Pretty impressive and there are many more studies to back this finding up!
So next time you go to get your horse from the paddock to find they have injured a leg you know what your best to treat it with – Mānuka Vet™ Skin and Wound Gel!
