Hi,
My poor horse has a fractured lower leg. No idea how it happened as she was on box rest for a different injury at the time. She's at a hospital but they won't operate as it's too risky so I just have to wait and see if she gets through the next few weeks without a catastrophic event. If she does make it then surgery might be an option.
Has anyone had a horse leg fracture heal without surgery, is surgery always needed?
