You poor thing. I went through this last year, hind leg lameness which was actually navicular in both fronts. As you know my story did not have a happy ending but the other horse on the yard diagnosed at the same time is still going strong and has not had any lameness since. Does the vet think it's mild or severe? Are you planning on having an MRI - we did this and it was good to see if there was any damage to the DDFT.
So sorry again, fingers crossed the prognosis is good x
Sorry to read this
I was also under the impression that boney changes where quite common in most horses and like someone said above if you xrayed a horses feet once a year and analysed them over a period of 3-5 years you would see boney changes in at least one foot.
Can i ask what vet you are using? I would get a second opinion first IMO.
