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.
The skin develops an abscess due to inflammation of the hair follicles. An abscess contains a middle portion that is filled with debris, which is enveloped by a clear border pink in color. As more and more debris gets collected in the abscess it becomes inflamed and causes pain. People with weakened immunity, certain chronic disorders like diabetes, ulcers and certain medical conditions like cancer, leukemia, sickle cell disease, and peripheral vascular disorder have more chance for getting abscesses.
