_F.Y.I.

Horses often get cuts and scrapes so it is important to know which ones need veterinary attention. (It is a good idea to call for your vet's opinion if you are unsure.) Here are some examples of cuts that need medical attention:

Wounds located over a joint or tendon
Puncture wounds
Wounds with excessive bleeding
Wounds with excessive heat or swelling
Any wound that is questionable

While waiting for your vet to arrive, gently run cold water from a hose over the wound. This will help clean the area and also reduce inflammation. If the cut is bleeding excessively, place a sterile pad or clean towel over the wound and apply pressure with your hand or a bandage until the vet arrives. If your horse has been impaled with an object, it is usually best to leave it in place so that your veterinarian can see where it is located and to avoid further blood loss or damage.
