My beautiful horse is getting worse and I don't know what else I can do!?
She is 28 and the problem is her back legs, arthritus at a guess (never been diagnosed as this by the vet). The mobility / flexion in her hind legs, one in particular is vertualy none exsistant.
It's breaking my heart to she my beautiful girl getting older and all that comes with old age.
Her mind is fine, she thinks she's in her teens again!
She wears Bio flow magnetic boots when shes in her stable to aid the circulation. I try to stretch her joints as often as possible in the attempt to maintain any suppleness, she is on a maintenance dose of danalon (anti inflamatory).
What else can I do?
Is walking / exercise a good options, or do you think that would cause the joints to cease even more? Should I up the danalon dose that she's on? Does anyone have any ideas / tips on oils, herbs anything natural / alternative? Is Arnica good for inflamtion?
Please offer guidance, I feel like I'm beginning to fail her!
