Please cross everything .very lame horse

[debsflo]

My lovley mare is very lame on the same leg she did her ddft about 4 years ago. Vet on way but cant find heat or swelling anywhere. She is 22 and my happy hack but am worried sick about her. Yesterday a neighbour was shooting so i wonder if she has damaged something as she hates gunshot. on box rest as we speak ,everything from tendons,laminitis ,ligaments in my head and thinking the worst. She is my horse of a lifetime had her for 12 years..

Best wishes hope that it's nothing serious

 

[Meowy Catkin]

I hope that she's OK.

*vibes*

Fingers crossed it's nothing serious. xx

Everything crossed for her hunny.

Everything crossed here, I hope it's nothing too serious.

 

[MerrySherryRider]

Fingers crossed for her. Don't worry too much until you know what you're dealing with. My horse went extremely lame after recovering from a very long period of rehabilitation and I really thought that it was the end of the road. Vet arrived, and few minutes later said it was an abscess. Opened it up and sorted. Horse happy again.
I really hope it's something as simple for you.

I had exactly the same as MSR last week, a week of tubbing and poulticing and she's doing ok

Best of luck

I'll keep my fingers crossed, I hope it's something and nothing x

It could so easily be an abscess, they can come on like wildfire; let's hope so.

 

[Boxers]

Hope she'll be ok Deb. What has the vet said?

 

[soulfull]

Oh no. It's horrid when they are not right. Keeping everything crossed it's something very simple to heal. Hugs x

 

[dogatemysalad]

Hoping your horse is ok. It's such a heart sinking feeling when they go lame again, but it could be something quite unrelated to the original injury and quite sortable.

 

[Asha]

keeping everything crossed for you, hope shes ok x

 

[Lolita]

Sending good vibes and best wishes that she is okay.

Well vet is convinced its her foot not a tendon probably bruised or twisted her foot. She is noticabely sounder already and has had some pain relief and to have quiet paddock rest for a couple of weeks. Also spoke to neighbour who was shooting and he was v reasonable although was attempting to shoot a fox will try and let me know in advance of any planned shoots..thanks for support.

Thanks for the update Debs I was wondering what the outcome was. Hopefully a couple of weeks rest will set her right again.

Just what I was thinking too, could be an abscess. Fingers crossed for you both.
