Is this normal? (splints)

[RuthP]

Noticed a few days ago that my horses splint bone was slightly larger than the other. There was no heat, no swelling and she was 100% sound.
She then developed a small swelling below (and to the side slightly) the enlarged bone. The swelling has a little hardish lump inside it.
Swelling now very small and lump still there. She's still sound and barely any heat.
I don't have much experience of splints so does this sound normal or something more sinister?
Have been cold hosing/ice packs and resting her- anything else I could be doing?
Thanks.

Sorry don't have much experience on splints ...... but just wanted to post so you don't think your being ignored

Although what you are doing sounds just fine ans certainly helping with the swelling ..... any more help then that and I'm like a chocolate teapot

Might be worth phoning the vet if your worried ??
