Hi Yaesmine,
If you can hose his leg with cold water it will help bring down the swelling.
Hope this helps.

help for lame Fjord

Here I am again !
Stormy started limping 2 days ago (back left leg) It's pretty bad, and I 
don't know what happened. We rode him the day before and he could have hurt 
himeself in some bad terrain or my mare kicked him. The inside of his leg 
from under the knee down to the foot joint is swollen (not terribly though) 
and he really limps badly. It is also sensitive when I apply pressure. I 
have been putting poultices with some herbs that I know have anti 
inflamatory properties but any advice about poultices or other things that I 
could do would be welcome.


Thanks again

Yaesmine Djabri
