I’ve lost track of what all that’s been done . It’s very common for a horse her age to have open growth plates on the tibial crest near the stifle . They will present like stifle soreness and have body soreness . If they haven’t closed by now it’s because there’s epiphysitis in the growth plate, which is painful. One good lateral X-ray of the stifle will show if it’s open or closed.

We did x-rays of the hock and stifle of I believe her left leg due to there being more flexation in that one I believe is how he put it? X-rays were clean but now thinking we should have the other leg x-rayed as well

A lot of vets will call it a clean and totally over look a growth plate issue. Everyone’s concerned about knee growth plates and yet stifles don’t se to matter.

Hey guys I know this is an old post but wanted to give an update. We ended up injecting her SI and gave her the last 7 months off. As you can see if she is certainly feeling better and will be going back into training in March!

Very good! I have to do that with Audie. He gets off from about Sep to March. I have his SI done, going to do mesotherapy again in Feb and we are good to go for the summer. He's longer made and has long pasterns and underslung heels in the back. I think that is what makes his SI area sore. Good luck with your mare!
