My lovely boy has fractured his splint bone & is confined to barracks for 3 weeks, when he'll be re x-rayed and a decision will be made whether to operate (chip fracture near top of off fore splint) Despite being a complete gem in all other ways he hates his daily routine being changed & not spending all day in his grass filled paddock is driving him round the bend-literally, and he's reverted to box walking which he hasn't done for years.
So any ideas as to how to persuade him his sore leg will only get worse if he keeps going in tiny circles??? The vet gave me sedalin for him. 2ml yesterady made no difference, 3ml today slowed him down a little bit but I would be grateful for any other ideas/experiences. Also any good or bad info regarding realistic recovery periods with/without surgery. Thanks
