Ok my horse (the one in previous posts with windgalls, only they weren't!) had scan on squiggie/hard lump last wk and has properable tear in SDFT and or DDFT in her hind leg. only probable as it is under anualar lig and as this and ergot get in the way of scaning. there was the hint of tear on the last pic before lig. She also has extra tissue forming above anular lig due to injury which now prvents the tendon sliding through the anular lig. Vet has said resting her will settle it but as soon as she resumes work the friction and stress of thework will cause her more lameness and gradualy detiriation. The only real option if i want her sound enough to do anything other than eat gass is surgry to try and remove the extra tissue and debride the tear (or at least thats wot i think!) as far as i am aware the lig is fine. Anyone else had this?? anyideas how long off length of box rest, vet has just said will depend on wot they find
