Old splints... can they re-flare up?

PF has had 2 small splints below each knee for several years. They've never caused her any pain/discomfort or made her lame. These last couple of days I've thought one looks a bit bigger. She's not lame, and doesn't hurt her at all to touch/poke/prod. Is it possible that an old splint has re-ignited itself, or could I just be imagining that it's grown (this is a definite possibility) Should I treat as new splint or old splint? Rest (if so, for how long) or carry on as normal. Vet is coming to do jabs on Monday, so I'll get her to have a look, just in case.
Ideas/suggestions welcome in the meantime
