"Clean out the hoof. Once the affected part of the frog is removed, you're ready to clean the hoof. Cleaning the hoof should become a daily part of your horse maintenance going forward, as it will help prevent injury and reduce the chances of thrush returning in the future. Be careful, though, as the horse may be in considerable pain, and cleaning out its affected hoof may frighten or anger your horse.\nUse a hoof pick to pick out any larger debris from the affected area.\nTwist a clean piece of gauze into a rope-like shape and use it to floss out any residual debris lodged in the hoof.\nUse a mild soap and clean water to scrub the hooves with a soft-bristled brush. Make sure that you only use this brush for the hooves and disinfect it regularly to kill built-up bacteria."
