A Bit of a Grammar Nut Posts: 1788 Location: floating down a river	Lilpad05 - 2015-05-16 12:37 AM Why pick the scabs off ? Seem like it would slow the process down and scar worse. It does have a smell but I assume ita flesh that's dying off. No temperature. My question as well. Once an injury scabs, you will not have to battle the proud flesh. The leg injuries I have dealt with I always pressure bandaged, formed a scab and then breathed a sigh of relief....

Member Posts: 36	I am the one that rehabbed the horse in the picture of legs cut open on first page. I only picked off scabs daily per vets reccomendation while I was battling proud flesh for a short time. Not all of it was scabbing just parts and I was scrubbing the dead proud flesh tissue everyday. Once I got the proud flesh under control and could safely leave a bandage off it scanned up very well and then I could let it be and keep treating it with what I was using. If I knew how to post pictures I wish I could. I had two seperate vets look at this horse and they were both amazed by how quickly and great it healed.

Just do a search for it, her number is there. (I don't have it available right at the moment)
