Hi just thought I'd pass this on, my horse had a swollen sheath last year which took approx 3 weeks to go down along with anti inflam meds.

This year when the weather was really hot week before last his sheath came up massive again, he was already booked in for a massage and the therapist said that it might help the swelling and to massage towards the lymph gland. Well.... it went down the next day and was back to normal couple of days later, just thought I'd post in case anyone has same problem.


He is 38 diagnosed cushings Nov 2015, I know a lot of people say that its one of the symptoms of the disease but maybe just flies
