Member Posts: 19	OK finally had to break down and start injections, a couple weeks ago had left stifle and both outside knees injected, all was good, now both rear ankles down to the hoofs / cornet band are swollen. He's not lame or doesn't appear to bother him still runs and bucks across pasture. Could this be infection or a reaction to the injection? Thanks

Extreme Veteran Posts: 477 Location: Lost in the swamps	Did your vet tell you to stall rest him for 24 hours? Does he normally stock up when stalled? Any degree of heat in the injected areas?
