Mild thickening of the check ligament / desmitis (fore limb)

[sanjo]

Hello
My 15 yr old ISH diagnosed with the above after MRI and scans. Presented mild and intermittent lameness. Vet has advised walk only rehab, shockwave therapy and treadmill. Also right fore navicular bursa medicated due to mild oedema (guess this would have been ignored otherwise) and remedial shoeing. He is sound and extremely well at this stage, three weeks in. Anyone had something similar with a good outcome?

If you have to have a ligament injury, the check ligament is the right one to do
I've had two recover fine and I know of others, with no recurrence.
