hey, i just went to get millie into ride and she has got a swelling on her leg with heat in it under her knee sideways on, to about less than halfway down before her fetlock, i hav hosed it and she is not lame on it.

im sat here in tears while i write this as i cant believe its happening, i really hope its nothing serious but i have had a look in a few books and looks similar to suspensory ligament strain any other ideas?

i literally left school yesteday and was planning on havin a lovely summer tryin to get things together and i am now su upsert i am going to see how it is in the morning.

Dont panic hun, it could be nothing. You sound like you are doing the right thing - perhaps you could ice-tite it aswell. If its no better by Monday give the vet a ring; but dont try to self-diagnose, its terminal!

i really hope it is nothing, mum said maybe its just a horsefly bite or something, which it could be but tbh i dont think it is, its not a huge sweeling and its not like a lump..its spread out..iv got some pics i will upload them now and see what they come up like and start a new post to see if anyone has any ideas!
