Brought my boy in last night sound in walk, lame in trot. Not massively, I only noticed as I was lungeing him.
Last night had a tiny bit of heat back of pastern, this morning none in pastern just the bulb of heel. Not red hot but imediately noticable.
He's never had an abcess but guessing this is what it is? Is it possible an overreach could cause these symptons (he wears overreach boots in the field so there's no wound).
Any help gratefully recieved, can't think of anything else it can be - going to soak it in warm water and epsom salts tonight to see if it helps.
Thanks
