Here are seven common equine injuries and conditions here, and the best ways to react to them. Remember – the first step should almost ALWAYS be to call your veterinarian, at least for a conversation!
Bleeding and Lacerations
These injuries should be immediately treated in much the same way that you would treat a child’s laceration.
DO stop the bleeding by applying direct pressure or pressure with a bandage.
DON’T remove the bandage to peek at the injury! It’s tempting to look under the bandage, but you’ll be backtracking on treatment. By applying pressure to the wound, you’re helping it begin clotting. If you remove that pressure, it could halt all clotting and begin bleeding again.
