[AskAVet] leg injury

Our mare appears to have pulled a tendon or ligament after a lively
ride. There has been some swelling which is gone (it has been 2 ½ weeks
now since the incident) but there is still a small "lump" just
below the inside of the "knee". Our plan is to rest her for some time
and wondered how long would anyone suggest? She is walking quite well
with no pain meds and this also follows a burst abscess. We feel it
was not major damage but more of a pull.

Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated .

Linda
