we ordered http://www.rhythmbeads.com/ for him as well will post pictures as soon as we have them! 

he has what looks like a puncture wound he has a cut on his chest area that is healing a long scrape on the right back leg and at his fetlock a big scab which Kattie, Matt and I scrubbed clean but he wouldn't let us poke around. I was trying to get it open so it could drain.  Was successful in giving him 20 cc of naxcel and cleaning the entire area.  He is putting weight on it but he has a cough and definitely has infection going on.  We will call the office to have the vet out sedate him then we can do some tests to see what type of bacteria is in there what it is susceptible to and how best to treat him.

3-27-06- foals leg was cleaned thoroughly pink tissue was seen as well as blood no bad smell of infection was observed however we will be culturing area for bacteria types to make sure naxcel is adequate.

3-30-06 great report from the vet this fetlock will most likely remain slightly larger but no sign of infection, she said we did a great job and he should recover very nicely.  The only problem is the injury is in a tough place to heal due to movement but with wrapping and topical assistance he should be fully recovered in just a few weeks.

4-10-06 culture showed no growth of bacteria full recovery expected.

6-21-06 - all better I am ready for a home!
