I have a gelding that has a small cyst in one stifle. Injections have not helped and I have been told that because of where the cyst is, surgery wouldn't be worth it as too many other things could go wrong. Anyone have experience with other options? Previcox? Equibone or OCD Pellets?

Is it a cyst or leison? I had a mare that had a leison and I did 10 rounds of Adequan( a dose a week for 3 weeks then 1 a month for 7 months). It's gone now

I would get another opinion. Stifle surgical procedures have become very advanced within the past few years and I would want another opinion before completely ruling out surgery as an option.
