Pain management - Do any supplements work?

He moves shorter and flatter. He’ll trot out in the pasture, but he typically doesn’t canter more than a few steps. He lies down to sleep. He typically take 3-7 naps outside a day and he lays down in his stall at night. He does not currently struggle to get up, which I find surprising.

That’s awesome Does he lie down with the bad leg on top?

@OhioRiderEsq

What’s the concern with Devil’s Claw and firocoxib?

DC is technically an NSAID, just a natural one, so you still don’t want to use multiples.

Both legs are quite bad, although one is worse on rads–both comparable clinically. I couldn’t tell you if he favors a particular side, but in the last week, I’ve seen him lay down on both sides.

Thanks. I didn’t know DC is considered an NSAID!
