They would be much appreciated!
Corrie went lame 2 weeks ago and had a scan today. She has done her check ligament in her front left. Prognosis is for a good, fairly quick healing.
However, she did the exact same thing last October, but in her front right, and it took 6 months and 3 attempts to get it to heal and for her to stay sound.
Hopefully, we can get it right 1st time round this time.
 
Oh poop that's bad luck to do a 2nd check ligament! Is she on box rest or ok to go out? My old mare did one a few years ago and they can take a while to heal, but she should fully recover.
 
2 weeks of box rest, bute and hand grazing and then off the bute, and if all seems ok can start hand walking, but still on box rest.
Thankfully, this is a horse who loves her stable, and is almost easier to do on box rest, than turned out. (She is a bit of an odd one!)
 
So sorry to hear your news. I hope it heals up quicker this time and she better soon.

*HUGS* for you and your horse.

I know the feeling about poorly horse my horse seems to be having a spate of illness at the moment and we are currently investigating why he is finding it hard to work. Suppose its the reason why we have them. To keep us on our toes lol
