I have vet coming tomorrow but horse has gone lame, front leg, no heat swelling, bumps etc will walk ok. Farrier has checked hooves. Lame trotting & turns but full of beans in himself. The only place I seem to get a reaction when feeling down his legs is sort of behind the 'elbow' in his sort of 'armpit' area at the very top of his leg where his leg meets his body. No reaction in the other leg in the same area. My question is what muscles tendons ligaments etc are in this area. Have tried to look it up on the internet but haven't found a lot of info. Thanks
