My horse has lumps on her bum beside her tail. I thought they were bites but now I'm not too sure. Any suggestions as to what it could be?

If she is grey they could be melanomas however if she is not they could be sarcoids or warts. try feeding sarc-ex ( a feed suppliment by global herbs) it is completly natural and is made up of hers and minerals it not only treats the lumps and bumps but whenyou continue to feed it for a further 6 months it builds up the horses ammune system to prevent them from reoccuring hope this helps x

if shes a grey than theres a chance that they are melanomas, which are most common in greys. i have a grey mare and she has them in exactly the same place . unless they grow or become ulcerated there is usually nothing to worry about. never the less i would keep an eye on them and monitor if the increase in size, and contact your vet if you have any concerns. hope this helps x

is she grey? alot of grey horses get melonomars! (i cant spell) around the tail and on there pink skin! my firends horse gets them but theres not alot you can do about them! she feeds her horse green tea leaves which u can get from places like barrats n other herbal shops n found this helped her chap out alot! it might not work for you, but its not doin any harm if it doesnt! x
