Sand Rail Front Suspension

Posted on April 14, 2010.
Sand Rail Front SuspensionShould I buy a horse with a suspensory ligament ... past tense?

He is 16 years and showed Dressage and hunting since he was 5. It has been a horse for a school just over 2 years now. with small children are walking to trot and canter and other ties.
We had a vet check on him, and he was limping on his left front after the test flextion. We didn't do X-rays the vet said he seemed very serious and I wanted to jumping and dressage, he wouldnt be good for him. the end of the tendon sheath, below the back of his knee was really swollen. I could see ... and feel!
So I told the owner and she went ahead and had a vet look it, and it blocks the nerve block and nerve at the ligament suspension, he trotted almost normal. I was not there, but I talked to a vet and he said about normal with the nerve block. He said it was a strained suspensory ligament.
I asked the owner how she thinks he got it, and she said that Marshal was late cut his feet perhaps, and it is almost right now the rest of 2 weeks after nerve block with the vet. I am jumping, dressage and make the grass and sand arena.

My question is, do you think I should go ahead and do veterinary MY bending over him again??? Or is it not worth it. Do you think the problem appear again?? What should I ask the owner?? strained suspensory ligament, or tendon sheath swollen??
I do not know what to do. HELPPPPP !!!!!!!!!!!

diagnosis of your veterinarian has not been ignored, and if the horse also has a strained suspensory, which is a torn ACL, so I walk. There are never any guarantees with these kinds of injuries. One thing is certain is that the tendon and ligament injuries never heal to be as strong as they were before, and a sheath of tendon inflammation and swelling can easily become a chronic inflammatory condition. I would keep looking, but if you're determined to continue to pursue this horse, you need ultrasound examinations to determine the status of injuries.

I do not want. Except, he did not touch him, but if it can anyway, then no. not worth it.

Honestly, yes, I think you should go ahead and do it. My horse had a torn suspensory. He finished with it healed in about three months. In these months, I always rolled, just not to jump, I jump now about 3'0, give or take a few centimeters. It is in very good condition. I do not think however that you should be flexing your veterinarian, since you trust him / her more of Veterinary other person. If all goes well, do it.

No, why start with a problem before you got the horse home? If he does end up being chronically lame is a beloved pet that you just bought.

If you are not positively in love with this horse and would like to have, even if you could not hack it, I would say no. Horses 16-year-old certainly can still jump, but if you're hoping to progress and jump higher or competing at higher levels, a horse who is a previous injury is not the best choice . There is a good chance it will come back to haunt you (and him) later, unless you are very careful with what you do with it.

I should add that my horse has been sidelined for a summer in his teens because of a strained ligament. He remained at roughly the sound since and is now in their twenties, but we do not jump. Thus, it is certainly not the end of the world, but he could throw a wrench in your riding goals if you're jumping.

not listen to your vet, many horses have problems with bending tests, but if its severe enough for your vet to say he would not be appropriate to do what you want then I would not buy

If I were you - I wouldnt take on a horse like this because there is always the possibility that it might come against him - and if hes not lame - you will be feared that his upcoming cons.
