Summer Hip sores

[Serendipity]

I have a horse that is keeping a hip sore I treated id seveal ways with wound dressing,then neosporin,then even iverimectin(wormer) in case it was a parisite.It will heal over and the horse does not bother it when I put the stuff on but it breaks open when the horse rolls its about the size of a dime anyone got any sujections on how to cure this I don'r want it to scar

Is it from laying down?

It's from lying down. The only way to help it is softer ground.

Indi gets one on her right hip - from banging the wall when she is in season.
There is a product that is really good for these kinds of sores:

do you think New Skin would work? Its okay in the stall only breaks it back open when I turn out and they roll doenst matter if in the grass or sand

Chinook has one too on one hip. I'm going to hit it with wonderdust tomorrow to try to get it sealed up. She probably gets it scratching on fences posts and things.
