Quarter Horse's question about Desmitis of the Suspensory Ligaments of the Leg

Question

Ive had lameness issues in my barrel horse for 2 years and no one has been able to find it and it was suspected in his feet when they blocked sound in both feet. MRI showed only mild bursitis in his feet and that's it. He is now lame 5/5 in his left front swollen after being turned out over night. No broken bone and no infection. Could my horse block sound in his feet when he has actually had suspensory issues/tendon issues this whole time?

Accepted Answer

Thank you for your email.  Unfortunately, without knowing more about his history and signs, I have a hard time commenting on your question, but that would be a great question for your veterinarian, who has experience with Starbucks and knows the details of his situation.  I hope that he recovers well.
