An abscess is usually a wound that has healed the beginning, but basically it finally came to the surface and breaks.
Mix some Epson salts, as he would soak his feet, soak a cloth in the computer and make cuts on their horses hot face atleast twice a day. This makes the infection.

Sometimes you have to cut a section, it is not all dead tissue and drainage is properly placed to heal.

Mainly because this is the second time this happened I had a vet check it out. You will probably need antibiotics.

If the second time that the horse has done so, I would take blood, and then seek to allergians. Biopsy or culture tests.

Did you strangle similarities a coincidence?

I would be interested to know whether his face was swollen. So your respiratory system at risk, while you are away. I hope that the vet can be a look and drain. At the same time, treatment with medication that is with diagnoised.

I had mumps, mumps (purple secondary Fatel, if not treated immediately), and abscesses in the helmet / leg.

"The cause of most skin abscesses often penetrates a closed wound, penetrating foreign bodies such as dirt or a bursting of the skin. Abscesses under the jaw are often caused by an internal infection or illness caused herCH as strangles. Internal abscesses are also produced in the liver, lungs and other areas and are usually associated with widespread bacterial infections. "

Let me give you more information but I know it's difficult for me to read. lol So it's better than Google and read it on websites of skin diseases of horses and also a look at their veterinarian.

My gelding has more on the hoof and it was painful for some time. I just cut a week earlier. Yes, I'm sure that's why. I just dipping his foot in hot water twice a day and go easy. Above all, to do their own feet, because we are the country and he and the others wander

So depending on where the abscess and how often this happens. When you say, abscess, you get a big knot, then the flight or what. There is more information I need. If you send me more details like, maybe I can help more I am not a vet, but have been around horses all my life and I know a lot about them.bigbrowneyes_bsbrown @ yahoo.com

Just to complete some of the reactions of the other well - Antibiotics have their place, but in general I try to avoid as much as possible ... but if the vet prescribed, they know better .... Anyway, back on track ... I Vitamin C powder - in most grocery stores good deeds. Horses do not produce themselves, but their bodies are well equipped with modern garbage like ours, which is exhausted, etc., vitamin C and I found very useful in building their own care, if my horses are ready ill (colds, etc.) , travel a lot, and when it receives an injury of any kind, it really helps to speed healing and infection stations.
About a tablespoon per day in food is usually the work, depending on the size of the horse.
I managed a horse had an abscess behind her and healingTalus age and injuries that occurred at the same time. I went to the vet when you first indication - the lid is opened, it has been paid for antibiotics for a week, then off again. Boy is the needles is sick! Then I began to vitamin C to your diet.
I'm not saying that everyone replace what the vet prescribed, but give it go at the head to keep them clean, without torture trying to keep his horse carefully, open the drain and on the advice of veterinarians.
Oh, and when the horses were not injured. Do not feel bad to see if you can find the cause. It can be as simple as a grass seed Sharp or a fragment of a barn. ... and (the face for you, here), not everyone is a veteran of 5 minutes ... We have a vet in a radius of 100 km sOr sometimes, when life is in danger of waiting, may have one or two weeks. They guard it with first aid knowledge, you can guarantee your glove goes on, there are many books of the first kind of help veterinary naturopathy books may have in reserve in case you can not immediately a veterinarian.
Good luck!
