Re: [RC] Warts - heidiTo whom it may concern I have a six year old gelding who has many warts on his muzzle and on his front legs and around the chest area. If anyone knows of any treatment to get rid of these warts please let me know. Thank you Mohammed Mokdad Warts are caused by a virus, and they will go away in time, as the horse builds an immunity to them. Usually it takes several weeks. You can sometimes speed up the process by pinching off a few of them--theoretically, at least, this causes more "exposure" of the wart virus to the blood stream, enhancing the production of antibodies. Once they are gone, the horse tends to be immune to them and they do not recur.
