Bony lump hind pastern. Ringbone? *Pics

[mazzerrr1993]

Hi everyone!

Just wondered if anyone had any ideas what this is ? I will call vet on Monday but I won't settle all weekend, horse has been through alot this last year and *I.Need.To.Know.Everything* stage. He is sound and very un-bothered by it, Farrier out Monday also. He does have side bone in his fronts and osteoarthritis of the hocks so i know it could be something along those lines, what would you say?


Thankyou x

If the horse is sound and the lump is cold and hard, I would not worry at all.

My first eventer had a matching set, really prominent, and he worked hard all his life and wen on competing to his 20s.

My horse has these on all four feet. No ringbone to be seen on x rays. He has what some non vets who have seen his x rays have called ringbone, but 3 separate vets (including Liphook) have said is within “normal ranges”
