There is a product I use called Dermagel. It soothes the skin, doesnt require bandaging and will help the hair grow back faster. Works well for open wounds and burns too.
Dr Williams at Lone star park got me started on it, it is great.
Valley vet Supply carries it.  Comes from Switzerland I think.

This will work. You'll need a spray bottle. mix Vinegar ,epsom salt, green alcohol, water equal portions. Spray the leg where needed swelling and cut area. Apply egg whites to skinned part of the leg. wash next day and apply again. swelling will be gone shortly and the hair will grow back.

 I'm going to be the odd man out here but I probably wouldn't do anything but cold hose until the swelling is gone. The hair will grow back fine on its own.

Preparation H...Helps shrink the tissues!

Yep it works. I had a vet tell me the same thing 25 years ago I thought he was nuts. But I tried it on horse that had old scars that would not grow hair. Darn if it didn't work.

Southtxponygirl - 2014-10-29 2:58 PM I would be useing Vetericyn on her.. 

^^^^^This.  Our horse had a wound the size of your hand on his neck in August.  I washed twice a day and sprayed with Vetericyn and that stuff is amazing.  Granddaughter was riding him in a month and he has a little bitty scar now.

 Here's my mare's before and after. The before pics were taken minutes after she hurt herself and looked way worse than this before it got better.  She has a sprinkling of white hair, but other than that you would never know. .

I'm with you. Cold hose until swelling is gone and if the skin starts cracking or getting dry looking after you're through with the cold hosing phase I would maybe put on some bag balm or corona cream or something moisturizing.

Thanks for the suggestions everyone

The reason I was hoping to get the hair growing back quickly is because she is my 2015 futurity prospect and I need to be hauling her to exhibitions. I just want to avoid the death glares when I am able to start riding her again :)

She was doing well this morning, seems happy - just sore. I cold hosed this morning and sprayed with vetericyn after, since its all I have on hand right now.
