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?

Or, good vet that could recommend other options?

Thanks!

 Structural Detox and Painaway. I used it on a horse with a stifle cyst and he is sound and back to competing

 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 try the Platinum Osteon before the Equibone.

I dont know what state your in? Did you go to a good lameness board certified surgeon or did you go to your good local vet?

  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.
