Small lumps on Tangos body

[img][/img]


I noticed these on Tango when i woke up this morning. He was play fighting with my dads staff last night but he seems to have raised small bumps allover his body but mainly near back leg, I tried to get a pic but it hasn't shown up very well on it. Any advice on what they could be? He was flea and wormed last week. Thanks

Any advice please?

Possibly insect bites?

Sounds like an allergy or some sort. My girls get these when they are bitten or come into contact with a plant that they are allergic too. Half a teaspoon or liquid piriton (the childs one) should calm them down x

Taz has had these on and off for the last couple of weeks - 3rd vet trip gave me advocate to use once a month for 3 months (previously using frontline) , explaining that they can get demodex. (no skin scrapings were taken ).

1st application didn't change anything at all & I shall apply the other two as instructed.

I tried 1/2 a piriton tablet & special anti-fungal & antibacterial <a class="ktg6us78hf8vdu7" href="#">shampoo</a> & spray which didn't <a class="ktg6us78hf8vdu7" href="#">work</a> either.

Sudocrem & Johnsons skin-eze cream (that contains precipitated sulphur) eased the bumps and stopped the scratching

looks like an allergic reaction to something to me. An antistamine should do the trick.

It shouldn't be the new wainrights trays i got him should it?

It's possible. Have you given the antistamine yet?

We have a few stingy nettles in the garden, Kenny was covered in the same lumps. He was given Piriton by the vet. It's possibly an allegy

Hes had a antihistamine and they seem to have gone down a lot, So he should be back to normal in a couple of days

Thanks for letting us know, thats very reasuring

Looks like an allergy to me as well

Thanks for help everyone. Glad i found this site

Glad you got it sorted. I was going to tell you it was insect allergy/insect bites anyway hahaha

These bites are very very common in horses.

Good news...and now I know for future reference!
