Just a short short about reaching for the rasp instead of the vet...don't
forget to include your farrier when you are having a potential laminitis
episode...just a reminder.  In our area, where there aren't really any
exceptional horse vets, Nelson IS often the first called.  After all, feet
are his business.  However, any extensive treatment, should the coffin bone
truly rotate and come down, will require x-rays and depending on the cause
of the laminitis/founder, who knows what else and getting your vet and
farrier to work together in that treatment is truly the best of both worlds.
