This sheath developed these lesions in April in Florida and are about 4 weeks old. They are being treated with an ointment from a vet clinic with no ingredients listed. It is slowly improving. Deworming has been done every 6 months with the last deworming 6 months ago. I suggested deworming once a week for 3 weeks and to keep this habronemiasis (summer sore) lesion clean.
