I’ve found some useful info in searching the archives but I’d love to get more specific. Hinds only, please, as the prognosis is so different from fronts.
Please share degree of damage, treatment regimen, and outcome, good or bad. I’m not looking for hope so much as realism.
My horse has a 15% tear of the proximal Suspensory. I didn’t know it until the ultrasound, but there was a previous injury probably before I got him at 6 yo (he’s now 15). Studies I’ve found show a dismal rate of recovery, but mostly are done on racehorses and a successful recovery means a return to racing. I don’t need my guy to do anything so stressful but I want to at least be able to do several miles of hilly trails in coming years.
Thanks!
