lameness

Hello, I wondered if anyone had any advice on my situation. My horse has gone lame for about week and half now I have given her stable and field rest and box rest. The box rest made her worse so now put her in a field on her own small paddock of night as vet suggested. Vets advised her front...

Hiya, I’m really sorry to ask for advice that’s been asked a million times, and I’m sorry for the long post, so anyone willing to read the whole thing - thank you thank you thank you!!! My 22yr old Welsh 12.2 pony with Cushings (who I’ve owned since we were both 6) has been on loan for the past...

I recently started to notice my mare being slightly off in her hind legs, she didn't look lame as such but just didn't look right so I took her up to vets for a lameness exam. We had her stifles blocked and she looked a lot better and then had them x-rayed and an ultrasound scan to confirm. The...

So, following on from my previous post where I was struggling for a diagnosis of my horse's lameness, the vet came back out as I'd requested x-rays, and after removing the shoe and palpating, found a sore spot to the side of my pony's foot (previously missed by both the farrier and vet as hidden...

Has anyone ever had experience of ulcers/hindgut issues causing subtle hind limb lameness? My pony has had low grade ulcers twice in the past year and a half and treated successfully both times. He is sound without a rider but 2/10 lame right hind with a rider, worse on the left rein...

Hello, I posted on here last year - Title 'Lameness Help!'. Regarding my TB who had gone lame at the same time each year (September) and was diagnosed in his left foot with an old DDFT tear (After reading his MRI report, it is more like tendonitis than a tear), unbalanced feet and mild...

I've got an 11 year old Belgian WB x TB who I have owned since a 5 year old. Over the years she has cost me a small fortune in vets fees, from a tendon tear to colic surgery and a few things in between (including ulcers)! She can be quite hot to ride but does generally enjoy her work especially...

I will try and keep this as short and clear as I can. My pony was on breeding loan a few years back and she had a filly. Said filly is now 4 and with another owner who wants to sell. Said filly had lameness issues last year. First visit in Jan 18 was apparently bruising so had a week box rest...

So my horse is off work for 6 months with an injured tendon. He’s getting a bit old now but is still trotting around the field with no care whatsoever. Can anyone recommend any ointments, magnetic boots ect ect that might be soothing or help mend quicker as he is on no meds right now. Thanks x
