| Case Study: Chronic non-healing wound |
|
|
| Patient history: |
Diamond, a Boerperd stallion, presented with a chronic non-healing wound on his left front limb. He had sustained the injury, proximal to his coronary band, 22 days earlier on a barb wire fence and had been treated appropriately. The owners, however, struggled with bandage applications, maggot infestation in the wound, and the necrotic area kept on extending with no healing. |
| Treatment: |
Phototherapy was done once a day using the 21 day + protocol, every second or third day. |
| Outcome: |
Phototherapy improved blood circulation to the area, promoting cellular regeneration and repair, speeding up recovery. The stallion made a full recovery with no proud flesh and minimal scar tissue formation. |
