More fetlock info




    No one has answered me yet, and I'm not sure if anyone will, but I
have more information after hosing Elliot's leg.  Most of the swelling is
between the two tendons on the back of his leg, and there is much more (it
goes almost all the way up to the hock) on the inside than the outside.
Also, I don't know if I missed this before or what, but staring at his
hurt leg from the side, there is definite swelling or bowing or something
just under where the bony part of the hock begins along the back of Elliot's
leg.  I think I'm just going to call a vet.  I've never heard of a horse
with a bowed tendon in *back*, but I'm pretty sure it's possible, and I have
no idea what I'm dealing with.  I hosed, linimented, and wrapped tonight.
Any comments, suggestions, etc. are still very welcome.


                    Sarah & Elliot (not the hose!)
