My horse has had 12 months+ off due to 2 separate unrelated injuries one to the branch of the suspensory with some slight arthritis in left fore. The other injury was unrelated and took time to heal. She has been back in work for 4 months and is progressing well. Last week she came in from field and i had a feeling something not right. cold hosed leg and it swelled, next morning leg was normal. Gave Danilon for 3 days then box rested for 5. She seemed ok so went back in the field. When chekced legs yesterday they were both warm - ( she was warm all over) put it down to the warmer weather. Checked her today - nothing major in legs other than usual windgall swelling she is fine in walk and walking out well but unlevel in trot 1-2/10ths. If it's just a tweak how long do they take to heal or could it be more than that?
