I've found mixing purple spray with udder cream works brilliantly. Needs applying with gloves though lol!

In my experience suspensory injuries in the hind limbs are harder to 'repair'. Doing nothing tends not to help the injury. I suppose it depends on the extent of the damage. Have you had any scans? If caught early enough you may be lucky & the shockwave may help the healing process. With my horse...

I know this thread is very old but thought someone might be interested. I have a gelding by him. Fantastic nature, very kind and very clever. When I was competing him he was always commented upon. Very, very, very fast!!, did nothing slow! Only bad points, which to be fair could have been...

I'm trying to arrange him to come to Essex, but its only worth his while if he has a few animals to treat. He has a website www.naturalhealingsolutions.co.uk. Please pm me or contact him if you are interested. Thanks!

I do agree that time is a good healer - but I gave my boy a full year off, brought him back into work very,very slowly in the Spring of this year. Seemed to be going OK but then there was a steady decline. He was sound when I was well into riding him, but certainly not now. No obvious signs of...

He hasn't said yet, hes going to come and assess him where I am when he gets enough clients in the area, as I am a good 4 hours drive away. The initial assessment is £80 + vat + travel so I happy to pay for that and then once I meet him I shall ask all the questions. He's already had a...

Someone told me to have a look at this thread as it sounds like I am in a very similar situation to you. My horse has chronic PSD in both hinds as well as SI. I've had 3 years of trying to get him right and have not got anywhere. Vet came out last week to confirm PSD pain has returned and so he...

Thank-you so much for all your replies, I really appreciate everything that has been said. I've been a bit of a tearful wreck today but feel a bit calmer now. I think for the time being, providing hes stays as he his, I'll see how hes goes this winter, if he does struggle I may think twice...

I am half considering having my horse put to sleep. I'm sorry for the long dialogue below, but there is some history, I'll try & make it brief! 3 years ago he was diagnosed with bilateral PSD in both hinds, showing a mild lameness but enough that he resented being worked. Hes had all the...

I bought my horse 6 years ago, he passed his 5 stage vetting no problem. I had 2-3 year good years of competing then a gradual decline in perforance which led to him being diagonsed with PSD which was treated at Rossdales etc. Since bringing him back into work I have had no end of problem with...

Thanks for all your comments, I think I agree that there is not going to be any miracle cure for my horses problems. I've got the lady coming out to do a demo & if by any chance there is a HUGE improvment (which I very much doubt!) then its certainly not worth the money, even if theres just a...

Has anyone used this & had any success in helping sacroilliac pain in their horse? Any comments appreciated.
