Horse with Horrific Facial Injury and Infection
 Photo taken December 24th |
Zima came in from her pasture December 13, 2009, with a tennis ball sized lump on the side of her face. The source of of this injury and/or infection is unknown. In short order, the area erupted and a foul smelling pus effused. The treatment protocol was antibiotics and phenylbutazone (bute), with instructions to clean the area with a dilute iodine product. Improvement was minimal during these first 11 days. New, healthy tissue growth was quick and the horse easily tolerated the application of Banixx™ on the wound area. |

How to Apply Banixx to a Skin Infection
If needed, first flush the area with plain water to clean out any debris.
- Allow it to dry or pat the area dry with sterile gauze or a clean towel.
- Apply Banixx™ liberally, using disposable gloves, to the affected area two to three times daily, for two days (or as long as needed).
- Massage the Banixx to the skin gently with fingertips.
- Dispose the gloves to prevent the spread of infection.
Then, just let Banixx™ go to work. Banixx™ stays "active" for several hours so make no attempt to wipe or hose it off.
