[RC] Sacroiliac joint subluxation? - k s swigartCindy said: Please forgive me, Steph, for heading us off again! Here's a bone...I'm reading a fascinating article about rear end horse lameness due to problems in the sacroliliac joint. Does any one know if there's any research-based treatment for this, other than pain medications? If the problem with the sacroiliac joint is (sub)luxation (a not uncommon injury in horses, BTW, especially jumpers, which is why it is sometimes called "hunter bump"), everything that I have read and/or heard about it says that the recommended treatment is total stall rest. The Horse had a pretty good article about it a couple of years ago that explained some of its causes and symptoms. kat Orange County, Calif. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
