Can anyone help me.
I have owned my mare since feb, she is a 4 year old who was unbroken when she come to me. She was vetted and x-rayed in holland with no issues and re vetted here with me again no issues - apart from a small cold splint. Again she had general check and lameness workup 4 weeks ago and again all ok.
She is now in full work, i think she knocked the splint about 2 week or so ago as was a little puffy. the swelling went down and the back of her knee swelled and was a little hot and puffy - I had her stabled and bandaged - the swellen has now gone. but for the last week maybe a bit longer her fetlock has been swollen - this has no real heat in it and is not puffy its quite solid to touch. She has been sound the whole time. I am a worrier & as no clear problem feel silly getting vet out - does anyone know if this could be caused by the splint.
