The other day i was looking at guinness's legs and just running my hands down them to feel a lump on her knee, But unseen to the naked eye (you have to look and study to see it ) i had my farrier have a look at it and he said it feels fluidy to him but nothing serious , she does dish on that leg and has not fallen on the road but twice in the sand school (showing me how to do a cart wheel ..?) any one got any ideas or does any one know of a horse with this or simalar..?
 
sounds like a haematoma or bursitis type thing. maybe caused from a bump or knock. Cold hosing and gentle massage can help to disperse it.
If you really have to look for it probably not a haematoma...Cold hosing all the way and keep an eye on it.
