My horse has a leg injury that I've been treating for a couple weeks now. It is healing up but will be a while yet before it's fully healed. In talking with a friend about the injury, she told me this-when she was young, they had a horse that got tangled in barbed wire and had extensive lacerations across its chest and legs. The owner of the horse used A1 steak sauce as an ointment of sorts to heal it. She was baffled but said the horse healed up beautifully.
So in my growing up times, and still, I like to know multi uses for items on hand. I wasnt able to find anything at all about A1 and wounds. I asked my folks and my mom said she had heard of someone a few years back doing the same thing. Does anybody have any input on theory behind this or ever heard about it before? I'm quite curious. Trying to reason it out, tomatoes and raisins could be used as poultice, and some spices and herbs are good to promote healing as well? I know that's stretching it and I'm not seeking medical advice. I'm well aware that some old remedies are folklore while others are good to use. Thanks
