In need some help/advice with dealing and treating tendonitis. My mare came up swollen and limping about 2 days ago in both front fetlocks. She seen the vet today, he said she has some tendonitis in both and also a deep abscess in her left front which is causing her to limp. But you can tell she is sore in both front.
I did a laser treatment, she goes back Monday for another. She is being kept stalled with hand walking. I am icing whenever I can. The abscess is covered and Monday we will try to open it a little more to drain better.
Any advice? Is this something she can come back from?
Thank you!
Stall rest, it took one of my colts almost a year for hers to calm down. She is fine now, running 1D, i had to futurity her as a 5 yr old. It sucks. I just rubbed her down each day to create blood flow.
