| I would get the opinion of a good Vet before doing anything. Having said that, I had a TB gelding, that had never been raced, who had this type injury on a front leg. He had no treatment, but time, as far as I know. He was completely sound, and it never bothered him.
So, I guess the takeaway from that story is that it will always probably be unsightly, but he will go sound, and it probably just takes time.
I would ask, though, if your horse is lame at all now. Until the injury he is not favoring it at all, and the injury is completely cold, and tightened up, I would do nothing with him.
Good luck. | |
