I have a mare that had a huge hematoma at the stifle (not affecting the joint, as per the x ray and ultrasound). The vet drained it and she was give a round of heavy duty antibiotics and flushed the "pocket" out daily. Fast forward 2 weeks...is there anything that I can do / should be doing to aid / speed the healing of this? There seems to be a little swelling / fluid / loose skin (which I expect, given how big this thing was). I've never dealt with something like this before and really don't know what to expect or when it should be cleared up. Any advice is appreciated.
