Re: [RC] clicking in pasterns - Vallonelee

When I was trying to find out what this crazy sound was I even sent a letter to Matthew Mackay-Smith in 1991.  His reply stated:
 
1.    The snapping noises ae caused by the collateral ligaments rolling with extensin/flexion. It is not degenerative nor will your conditioning aggravate it.
 
2.    It is not symptomatic of any condition.  There is nothing specific to do to alleviate it, sometimes it disappears with mileage.
 
3.    This condition is not specifically hereditary.
