So my poor rescue Tennessee Walker seems to have the dreaded strangles. We are waiting on the lab report. The vet says that I should put furizone on to try and get the abscess to burst. What are your thoughts on that? I haven't used it for anything before.

Hello kris,
I would use ichthamol ointment myself but furacin ointment does have some warming properties.

Not for me kris but the article explains indications for antibiotic use in Strangles that apply at anytime.
