We all see the process of scarring every time our horse cuts or injures itself or is bitten or kicked by one of its companions. We also know that scarring tends to fade over time and even the most horrendous looking injuries can reduce to relatively minor scarring just by the passage of time.
Generally, after about 12 months the fading stops and the condition of the scar at that stage is what your horse is left with.
There is a great deal of experience throughout history of using herbal support to minimise scarring, mostly in people rather than in animals of course. The essential ingredient to such scar minimisation is the herb Comfrey which has been used forever for healing because of its ability to speed up cell replication. If the scar is massaged daily with a cream containing Comfrey the massage stimulates blood supply to the scar tissue itself and the Comfrey helps support the skin repair.
Apply sparingly once per day.
