Description
Rheva Wound Protection Small
Advanced Protection for Small Horse Wounds
Rheva Wound Protection Small is a patented equine wound dressing designed to protect smaller wounds, particularly on joints, limbs and other high-movement areas.
Its unique protective mesh creates a gap between the dressing and the wound. This helps prevent direct contact with the injured area while protecting it from dirt, insects, bedding, rugs and everyday knocks.
The design helps maintain a moist, protected environment that supports the horse's natural healing process and prevents the wound from drying out. The dressing is water resistant and can normally remain in place for up to seven days.
For wounds on particularly mobile areas, Rheva Extra Fixation can be applied for additional security.

Why Choose Rheva Wound Protection Small?
Treating wounds on a horse's legs and joints can be difficult because movement may cause conventional dressings to lift, rub or shift out of position.
Rheva Wound Protection Small is designed to provide secure protection without resting directly against the wound. This helps reduce irritation while keeping the injured area cleaner and better protected during healing.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can Rheva Wound Protection Small be used on horse legs?
Yes. It is specifically designed for smaller wounds on joints, limbs and other areas where movement can make conventional dressings difficult to secure.
Is Rheva Wound Protection Small waterproof?
The dressing is water resistant, helping to protect the wound during normal everyday use.
How long can the dressing stay in place?
It can normally remain in place for up to seven days. The wound should still be checked regularly, and the dressing should be replaced sooner if needed.
