Sun.--light riderless exercise
Mon.--light riderless galloping
Tues. --Both horses took off by themselves for 3 short play sprints in :14s in snow.
Wed. Off
Thurs.--horses engaged in light running on my arrival.
No change in swelling noticed Sat to Wed.
Thurs. --Swelling appears slightly larger and has fuller very taut feelling to it as if more fluid leaked in.
Skin over wound is healed--without drainage--would poultice do any good at this point?

Increase of the swelling after the day of rest indicates that increased circulation would be helpful now. So I would take a shot with that hot poultice now or even stick with your first plan with saran wrap and some medication under it.I know that these Animalintex wraps can draw away fluid and pus even if the wounds are closed and this looks like and abscess formed under the skin because piece of something makes irritation there.And again the position of the swelling does not indicate the involvement of the main hock joint capsule.
