For an unknown soft tissue injury in the stifle with clean x-rays, what is the best therapy for rehabbing a stifle? Vet said 90 days off. Anything I can do to help her along and keep her comfortable, I'll do.
Nearly impossible to put any kind of wrap on it, so I need some cool tricks.
If it's soft tissue, look in to Novobrace. It saved my gelding's torn tendon. Its designed for soft tissue injuries. Not sure about using it on a stifle, but it's worth looking in to!

I would contact S.G. I think she is the PHT rep on here. She has some kind of stifle wrap that may help healing. She is really nice and knows her products inside and out.
