First aid for horses
Stable pharmacy
The stable first-aid kit should always be stocked with basic products such as wound dressings, disinfectant, silver or blue spray and a thermometer so that you can provide immediate first aid for minor wounds. Plasters should also be in stock for two-legged friends.

Zinc oxide, silver spray or blue spray help your horse with small wounds
You should always have zinc oxide spray and silver or blue spray in your stable's first-aid kit. You can use these to cover scratches and small wounds and protect them from wound secretions, sweat, urine, water and other harmful influences. The area should be thoroughly cleaned beforehand. The dragon's blood film plaster from Effol, for example, is also helpful. This also thoroughly covers smaller wounds and promotes healing. If your horse doesn't like being sprayed, there is also a silver ointment for wound care from Leovet.
For swelling, e.g. on the horse's leg: cooling gel provides quick relief
Cooling gel helps quickly if your horse's legs are very warm or runny after work. The Leovet Celsius cooling gel can also be applied to damp fur. Cooling down the legs promotes the regeneration of stressed ligaments and tendons. These cooling gels can also be used for tendon damage or other inflammations. If your horse has a serious injury that is the cause of the swelling, discuss the use of a cooling gel with the vet first.
Minor wounds heal faster with a wound gel or ointment
Insect bites, abscesses, eczema, moles or small bite wounds - such minor wounds are easy to treat yourself. Many manufacturers offer antibacterial ointments and gels that promote wound healing and protect the wound. The Hautrepair Skinbalm from Effol, Carr Day Martin Wound Cream or Leovets Proprolis Gel are particularly popular. They all support the natural healing process for small wounds, scrapes and abrasions.
