My horse is currently on pen rest in a corner of his field following a tendon injury over a month ago. Went up yesterday and all 4 of his legs were massively swollen from his fetlock to over his knees and hocks, difficult to tell if he's lame because of it or because of the original tendon injury. It's not a fluidly swelling and it's not his windgalls as he does get those from time to time. any idea's what else it could be? he is starting to get stressed and depressed about being on his own and his legs have swollen up before when he was on his own, could this be down to stress? Am waiting for the vet to call me back this morning
