Thanks to every one who responded last week after my boy took a kick above his hock. Well we had the scan yesterday

.

The leg is thickened just above and around the hock and according to the vet he has damage to the gastrocnemius (sp) tendon in his hock.

He has to stay in a small paddock (to stop him looning around!), for 6 weeks then they will re scan again. Can't give me a diagnosis yet but if tendon is damaged long term, no jumping and i'm unsure about any riding with him

, we wanted to do low level eventing and he's only 5.

Thanks for reading, feeling pretty low at the moment and i know the next 6 weeks will pass so slowly.

Thank-you in advance for any positive, healing vibes anyone might leave
 
(((((((((((())))))))))) lots of healing vibes to you and your pore boy. hope the 6 weeks pass quickly and he makes a full recovery. Good luck
 
Remember they always give you the worst case scenario. Vibes are on their way! You will have to come and join me, AmyMay and Ali_M in the vetinary section now with a nice strong drink.
 
Lots of good luck vibes coming your way and hope all works out for you both. I'm in similar situation at the mo, why does it always happen in the summer???
 
Big hugs, and so sorry to hear this. Gem got kicked just below her hock a few weeks ago, and was so lucky just to come away with a bad cut needing stitches, she was so close to damaging the joint/ fracturing her splint bone, shes still of now 4weeks on and it was such a worrying time, so i really do feel for you. x
