Does anyone have a picture of mild high ring bone they could share? Not an x-ray, but picture of the horse's pastern. Tried googling but all the pictures just show really extreme cases.

Also, has anyone dealt with this? And can ringbone cause back pain?

My husband has an older heeling mare with high ringbone. It looks like a lump above her hoof line. She is fine until she turns left so if she is ever competed on (very rare since her diagnosis) he gives her dex and bute four hours before being ridden per the vet instructions.

Do you have to do any corrective shoeing with her?

Nope he's a farrier and shoes her exactly like he always has. Our wonderful vet said there's not much you can do besides manage their pain.
