Mud fever and rain scald, also known as scratches or pastern dermatitis, are two of a group of diseases horses get, causing irritation and dermatitis in the lower limbs, over the face, along the back and the rump. Often caused by a mixture of bacteria, typically Dermatophilus congolensis, and Staphylococcus spp, mud fever most commonly affects the pastern and heel area but can also affect the upper leg, the belly, and in some cases the neck area (also known as Rain-Scald.
