Cezina R with the scrape on her forehead

When Sanne Klarborg came out to the paddock one day with her mare Cezina R, the mare had been unlucky and suffered a large and nasty abrasion on her forehead - fortunately without internal injuries! Cezina R had been at stallion training and away from home for three weeks, so perhaps she had had a disagreement with her friend in the paddock after returning home.

Sanne was at a loss as to how to deal with a wound on her horse's forehead. She searched for advice on Facebook, where we recommended Absorbine's Silver Honey Wound Ointment. Silver Honey is made from New Zealand Manuka honey and MicroSilver BG™; a combination that keeps the skin moisturized and provides a protective layer. Within just a few days, Cezina was on the mend. The pictures speak for themselves - one week after the first application of Silver Honey, the hair just needs to grow back.

Sanne is especially happy with Silver Honey because she didn't have to change the stabling conditions or wash and apply several times a day to keep the wound supple and prevent it from reopening. The mare could stay in her 24-hour paddock with her pen-mate, and as instructed, Sanne applied the ointment once a day after wiping off any residue with a damp cloth.
