Why You Don’t Need to Remove Scabs When Treating Mud Fever with EquineCare Probiotic Spray.
With our probiotic topical spray, there’s no need to remove scabs while treating mud fever. The probiotics work naturally to restore a healthy microbiome on the skin's surface, reducing harmful bacteria and calming inflammation. This allows the skin to heal gently and effectively without disturbing the protective scabs.
In fact, removing scabs can slow healing by exposing raw skin to new infections. Instead, leave them intact! Tiny gaps in the scab and the surrounding skin allow the probiotics to work their way to the underlying tissue, where they help balance the microbiome, reduce harmful bacteria, and support the skin’s natural healing process. Additionally, the scab itself provides a stable environment that can retain the probiotics and their beneficial effects longer.
