Most abscesses occur as the result of a local infection that the body is able to contain, but which it cannot eliminate. Causes of abscesses in horses include bacteria, such as Staphylococcus aureus, viruses, parasites, and swallowed objects.
An equine hoof abscess most often develops after trauma to the hoof. If the hoof is weak for some reason then it is more likely to get hoof abscesses. Thin soles for example, can't provide sufficient protection for the internal structures and are more susceptible to stone bruises which can lead to an abscess.n equine hoof abscess most often develops after trauma to the hoof.
