Hi all,

So about 3 weeks ago my horse injured himself in the field and the whole leg was swollen but he was not lame, just stiff, after a few days all the swelling went but a small bit remained, the vet said it was slight tendon sheath swelling and wasn’t too concerned as he was sound when trotted up and not sore to turn etc. He said light work and see how it goes, my farrier also agreed with him. The swelling is gone one day and back the next, it’s bizarre to me. I’m thinking a windgall and was just wondering if anyone has dealt with something similar and what the outcome was?

Just to add, he is a native pony that goes hacking 2-3 times a week.

Thanks for reading.
