A deep, chronic thrush infection had penetrated deep into the sensitive Plantar cushion, and this horse was lame.

The hole caused by the thrush infection, seen in the picture at left, was 1/2" deep before treatment. After 3 days of Banixx™ application with a medicine boot, there was a huge reduction in both the size and depth of the horse's thrush infection (see photo above, at right).

The medication boot was important for maintaining the foot in the Banixx™ solution and keeping the foot in a clean environment. Learn more about the reason for using a medicine boot.
