Based on UK experience of what might be called "endemic" as opposed to the more severe (and much, much rarer) ulcarative and enzootic lymphangitis. (Dlh-stablelights 15:44, 9 June 2007 (UTC))

Any published evidence for that, 76.1.197.65? Certainly, my clinical experience would suggest that the vast majority of horses make complete recoveries, quite easily. And what's this about "the immune system being weak"? What evidence do you have for this statement? I agree it makes empirical sense, given the location of the infection, but that is true of any infection. I'm afraid I'm going to have to modify that. I'll leave your stuff in - I hadn't really considered that aspect of treatment - but I will try to make it a little more NPOV. Dlh-stablelights 08:07, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
