My boy developed something that may or may NOT be a sarcoid after a fly bite went a bit nasty. Vet isn't sure and won't commit which is fair enough. We're monitoring it and if it changes he'll send pics off to the Liverpool guy. It's in his armpit and doesn't bother him at all. He was totally sarcoid free when I bought him. There's no guarantees that a sarcoid free horse won't develop them.
Oddly enough, nearly all the horses I've known to have sarcoids have been bay TB types, usually on the bellies or inner thighs. The only ones I've known to have had to be PTS because of them where both in their late twenties.
Where the potential sarcoid is described to be does sound a very unusual place OP.
