Corn

Below is a picture of a new horse that I did last week that had quite a significant corn. I rarely see corns as they tend to be caused by poor foot balance and shoes that are too small or left on too long. A corn is really just a bruise but in this seat of corn area. They can become infected but his horse just needed to be shod with good support and I'll update you with a picture in 6 weeks to show you the improvements.
