Lincoln

First Aid

Jump straight to the care you're after - grooming, hooves, first aid and more.

If you are building a yard first aid box, start with three things: a cleaning wash, a covering spray or gel, and a soothing cream. In this Lincoln range that means Lincoln Equo-Scrub (from £5.29) or Lincoln Iodine Solution (£4.57) to clean, Lincoln Purple Spray (£5.19) or Lincoln Antibacterial Green Gel (£10.53) to cover, and Lincoln Witch Hazel & Arnica Gel (£6.79) to soothe. Everything here is Lincoln, and 12 of the 16 products in this collection are in stock right now.

What should a basic horse first aid box contain?

Think in layers. A wash to get dirt out, an antiseptic to clean, something to cover, something to soothe, and a bag to keep it dry and together. From this range that is Lincoln Equo-Scrub (from £5.29), Lincoln Iodine Solution (£4.57), Lincoln Purple Spray (£5.19) or Lincoln Antibacterial Green Gel (£10.53), Lincoln Witch Hazel & Arnica Gel (£6.79), and the Lincoln First Aid Travel Bag (£26.35). Add Lincoln Epsom Salts (from £5.09) if your horse is prone to foot soaking sessions.

None of this replaces your vet. First aid products help you keep a minor problem clean and comfortable while you decide whether a vet visit is needed. Anything deep, bleeding heavily, near a joint or eye, or accompanied by heat, swelling or lameness is a vet call, not a spray.

Spray, gel, powder or oil: which cover should I choose?

  • Spray suits horses that will not stand for hands-on treatment, and lets you cover a graze without touching it. Lincoln Purple Spray, £5.19.
  • Gel clings to a spot and does not run off, which helps on legs and sloping areas. Lincoln Antibacterial Green Gel, £10.53, or Lincoln Magic Gel, £8.02.
  • Powder is useful where creams and gels simply slide away or pick up bedding. Lincoln Antibacterial Powder, £4.94.
  • Oil spreads easily into awkward creases and dry areas. Lincoln Antibacterial Green Oil, £7.78.

Do I need arnica products as well?

They do a different job. Antiseptics are for broken skin; arnica-based products are traditionally used on unbroken skin after a knock or a hard day. Lincoln Witch Hazel & Arnica Gel (£6.79, 400gm) is the cooling option, while Lincoln Arnica Cream (£15.52, 400gm) is thicker and easier to massage in. Neither should go on an open wound, and neither is a substitute for veterinary assessment of lameness.

How do I store a first aid kit at the yard?

Keep it dry, sealed, and in one place everyone can find. The Lincoln First Aid Travel Bag (£26.35) is designed for exactly this and travels to shows without you emptying the tack room into a carrier bag. Check use-by dates twice a year and replace anything you have run low on before you need it in a hurry.

Lincoln horse first aid: your questions answered

What is the cheapest Lincoln first aid product you stock?

Lincoln Iodine Solution at £4.57 for 250ml is the lowest-priced in-stock item in this collection, followed by Lincoln Antibacterial Powder at £4.94 for 20gm and Lincoln Epsom Salts from £5.09. All three are sensible starting points for a new first aid box.

Is purple spray or green gel better for a small graze?

It depends on the horse and the site. Lincoln Purple Spray (£5.19) is quick and hands-free, which suits a fidgety horse or a hard-to-reach spot, and the colour shows you where you have treated. Lincoln Antibacterial Green Gel (£10.53) stays put on legs and sloping areas where a spray would run. Many owners keep both. If the graze is deep, dirty or will not stop bleeding, call your vet first.

What are Epsom salts used for with horses?

Lincoln Epsom Salts (from £5.09 for 1KG) are most often used dissolved in warm water for foot soaking, or mixed into a paste for poulticing under your vet's guidance. They support routine hoof and foot care as part of a treatment plan; they are not a treatment for abscesses, laminitis or lameness on their own. If your horse is lame, speak to your vet before soaking.

Can I use Lincoln Equo-Scrub for everyday washing?

Equo-Scrub is a cleansing wash for muddy, scurfy or grubby areas rather than a daily shampoo. It comes in 500ml from £5.29 for the first aid box, or 4 Litre at £38.53 if you are washing legs regularly through a wet winter. Rinse thoroughly, dry the area well, and follow with a barrier product such as Lincoln Equocrem (from £6.79) if the skin looks sore.

Do these products replace calling the vet?

No. Everything in this collection is for minor, superficial care and for keeping a wound clean and comfortable while you get advice. Always contact your vet for deep or puncture wounds, heavy bleeding, injuries near a joint or eye, sudden lameness, or any wound that is hot, swollen or not improving. Vet first, first aid second.

What size first aid bag do I need for shows?

The Lincoln First Aid Travel Bag (£26.35, one size) holds a wash, a spray or gel, a cream and dressings comfortably, which covers most day-trip needs. If you are unsure what to pack for your discipline, get in touch and our team will help you put a sensible list together.
