Juicy patches in horses: Understanding and treating them with ozone
Share
Swollen legs, also known as lymphangitis or edema of the limbs, are a common problem in horses, especially when they are immobilized or spend a lot of time in a stall. This condition manifests as swelling of the limbs, often accompanied by pain and inflammation. The problem can worsen and lead to skin complications such as cracks, dermatitis, or bacterial infections.
Causes of oozing feet in horses
Swollen legs are primarily caused by poor lymphatic circulation in the horse's limbs. The reasons can be varied:
- Prolonged immobility: lack of movement prevents proper lymphatic circulation.
- Bacterial or fungal infections: some skin infections can cause inflammation of the limbs.
- Injuries or trauma: an untreated injury can lead to complications such as lymphangitis.
- Environmental conditions: humidity, muddy or dirty ground can irritate the skin and promote the development of infections.
Symptoms of juice-like feet
The visible signs of juice-producing legs are generally the following:
- Swelling of the limbs, often the hind limbs.
- Skin is taut and shiny over the swollen area.
- Warmth and sensitivity to touch.
- Stiffness and discomfort in movement.
- Appearance of cracks or sores if the condition becomes complicated.
It is essential to treat this condition quickly to prevent deterioration and the development of persistent ulcers or dermatitis. This is where an innovative and natural solution comes in: ozone.
Ozone, an effective solution for treating oozing feet and skin conditions in horses
Ozone, a powerful natural oxidizing agent, has proven effective in treating skin problems and inflammation in horses. Thanks to its antimicrobial, antifungal, and anti-inflammatory properties, ozone offers a natural solution for treating and preventing complications of oozing feet.
The Ozone Bagging Device offered by our brand is a non-invasive method that combines curative and preventative action. The principle is simple: a special boot is placed around the affected leg of the horse, where ozone is diffused. This allows:
- To eliminate pathogens such as bacteria, fungi or viruses present on the skin and in crevices.
- To rapidly reduce inflammation and swelling thanks to the anti-inflammatory action of ozone.
- To accelerate wound healing and strengthen overall skin health.
- To prevent relapses by strengthening the skin barrier against future infections.
The benefits of ozone treatment for juice pastes
- Without medication: Ozone is a natural solution that does not lead to antibiotic resistance.
- Fast acting: The reduction of inflammation and swelling is often visible from the first applications.
- Preventive and curative: The device can be used both to treat an existing condition and to prevent recurrences.
- Improved circulation: By stimulating microcirculation in the limbs, ozone helps to evacuate lymphatic fluids.
Optimizing member health with ozone
To prevent oozing and maintain good skin health, it is recommended to adopt regular skincare practices:
- Rigorous hygiene of the limbs: Keep the horses' legs clean and dry, especially in wet or muddy environments.
- Regular exercise: Encourage movement to promote good lymphatic circulation.
- Frequent checks: Regularly inspect the skin and limbs to detect early signs of swelling or injury.
Using the Ozone Device as a preventative measure is also an excellent solution for horses prone to lymphangitis or with particularly sensitive skin.
