My pony mare went slightly lame behind , sound after 1 week boxrest, lame again, sound after another week is so then lame again. I could see and feel it though some onlookers could not. I had vet out after 1 st time, then off to get clinic of nerve blocks xrays and scans. She has a small space full of fluid in suspended ligament where it branches down inside fetlock on a back leg. She is on 3 to 6 months box rest with in hand walking building up from 20 mins per day. shockwave therapy and cortasan injections. Vets prognosis good chance of coming back to same level of work. We dis Trec GB, dressage and long distance . Fortunately her son has won lots so she has a future in loan as a brood mare if she doesn't come sound but I just want to be back competing with her. Advice and other people's experience with this would be welcome.
