Swollen glands

[HashRouge]

My mare suffers terribly from swollen glands at this time of the year and I was wondering if there are any supplements designed to help? I assume it's caused by pollen allergies. She has fairly prominent glands anyway and poor girl is looking a bit like a hamster atm and isn't thrilled about having her bridle on!

My pony suffers with this really badly, no known supplement I have heard of as it is generally the saliver glands that swell up, so when its rained and we get the tiniest flush of grass, or as my boy if he starts to eat the bushes they will then flair up. Try bringing her in for half an hour before you ride with a high net thats high up, this should help to drain the fluid away.
