Arabic's question about Infection of the Shoulder

Question

I have a mare Rasha , suffering from Shoulder Abscess for the lass 6 months
 I opened and cleaned the abscess , treat with antibiotics . it cured . But after two week it came again . So the recurrence happened now 4 times and get fibrosed the tissue also ?

Can you advise me a permanent solution ?

Accepted Answer

If Rasha is getting a recurrence of an abscess, it is possible that the full capsule may need to be removed and closed to get rid of all possible infective material; without examining Rasha I cannot give you specifics and I wouldn’t recommend that you carry out treatment on Rasha yourself especially for a chronic condition like this.
