Horse has heat in the front left foot ,doesn't show signs of being lame r any swelling in the leg. When I work her on a line she limps Alittle sometimes going to the left but never to the right and she doesn't always limp to the left just sometimes. And only at a trot she limps. Help !!!!!!!

I agree, an abcess is what it sounds like. I would make sure the hoof is really cleaned out and try to do a hoof test on her. Soaking will help and Icthamol will help draw it out if its an abcess!!
