There are several products you can put on a horse's tail to prevent other horses from chewing on it - Bitter Apple, homemade mixtures with cayenne pepper, etc. However, you should not put anything on irritated or broken (bleeding) skin - it could make it much worse.
To heal the tail fibers and the skin, the best thing to do is let the horse heal itself unless there are signs of infection - redness, swelling, discharge, ongoing damage indicating the horse is scratching the area, etc.
You will need to separate the chewed horse from the rest of the herd until the skin heals up and the tail fibers are growing back in, then paint a foul-tasting but non-toxic solution on the tail fibers (NOT the skin).
This may fix the issue.

Can a horse swat flies with a tail that is braided?
Yes a horse can swat flys with a braided tail. They might get irritated or bruised though if they have a really thick or long tail. After braiding it, put it in a tail bag. If a horse keeps turning his head towards his braided tail, or takes to stomping his hind feet or pinning his ears, you need to unbraid the tail. Do not leave a tail braided for more than a couple days at most. Also, you can use "fly spray" on the horse while it is unable to perform it's natural swatting functions.

How do you stop a horse froom eating another horses tail?
You could try putting some stuff that tastes bad on the horses tail to discourage the other horse from eating the tail or put a plastic muzzle on him, but that would mean stopping him from grazing. EDIT - I agree. Some things I've heard of people using are tartar sauce, soy sauce, or hot sauce. On a scale of best working to least, i'd rate them: 1st: Hot sauce, 2nd: Tartar, 3rd: Soy

We wash the horse the night before - full body, legs, tail etc then overnight put a thin sheet on or a thicker rug if its cold.
