I have an 8 month old colt foal who has just been vaccinated with his second flu/tet jab. His neck has really swollen up. The vet has visited and confirmed it is a reaction to the jab which took 8 days to come up. He confirmed it by taking a sample from the lump. The drug company has agreed to pay the cost of his treatment but I'm wondering if anyone else has had this happen to them and how long it took to go down. He is weaned. He has been given topical tensolvet. My big worry is it wont go down. He is my plan for the future, my dream is to keep him entire and would like to take him out as a yearling this year to sport horse classes. But how can I even think about it with this monstrosity on his neck. He is by Renkum Valentino out of a Florestan mare. He is stunning apart from his lump. Has anyobe else had this and how long did the swelling take to go down. What if it doesn't go down? The vet has said he can give him some other treatment if this doesn't work. Please help if you can
