Wearing boots for ridden work can make things worse if the skin is at all soft so I dont put boots on in the depths of winter for anything. Riding on the beach and in the sea might be helping me, I try to take her in once a week as I think it helps with their feet.

In my reading about MF and Mud Stop I've read some research papers that show that although there is one bacteria often found in MF cases it isn't always present, so it isn't as simple as there being one MF bacteria. I think when the skin is wet/ scratched/ immune system compromised quite a few normal soil bacteria can colonise even if you don't have the normal culprit. Yes that is so true, the other thing I forgot to mention in our treatment is dosing up with echinacea to boost the immune system.
