Go away, I'm reading
Right little pony has been lame for two weeks, saw vet after two days, we think arthritis did check for lami but he didn't react to hoof testers and had no pulses and a little bit of heat. So bute trail and feild rest.....he was improving on the eveing and coming outbid stable better in the morning then one night he came in from the feild( on 7 hours t/o) very lame.
Ring vet they came out next day, I put him on a deep bed over night just incase.
Vet comes out and he is still very lame, got pulses and heat hoof tested and is slightly sore over tip of pedal bone so treat as if LGL but due to his age and hard life (see other post about pigeon toed gee gees) we know there is arthritis in there too we were to walk him on hand twice a day do he wouldn't seize up.
Uphill today he was going great and walking out sound as anything then took Jon out stable this morning and he is favouring one of his front legs to the point where he wants to put it down toe first....my understanding is lami leans back off pedal bone??....... He also has this lump that has gotten bigger round a tendon and has a huge pulse there?
Could he have blown a tendon? )Dint have any experiance with this) Abcess?
Vet is coming out tomorrow to nerve block and X-ray.
Hot chocolate and cookies for getting this far.
