A lesion found on the wing is always a concern

Stephen E. O'Grady, DVM-A lesion found on the wing is always a concern
Here is an empirical observation- since the lesion is medial and RF , a definite symmetry in the medail wings of both the naviclars- causaton : leaving the medial side of the foot high or long over a periond of time and jumping 4ft.

Here is the LF rad of the same horse-note simular symmetry in both medial wings of the navicular but not the changes-

Also note the changes in the RF DV shot is mid-line of the navicular to the medial side- just thoughts on how medial /lateral balance can effect bony changes over a period of time under strenous work- right or wrong it's my story and i am sticking to it:p

Bro Jaye, you need to be careful when you speak of causing bony changes because you may raise the ire of the anonymous wannabe Thought Police who apparently think the ability to move bone is akin to being able to create life from swamp water. :)

Please share your thoughts on the bony changes one sometimes (often?) finds affecting the right hind of some horses, aka "right handed disease."

The thoughts are not mine but the "Good Dr. Rooney"- Biomechanics of Lameness in the Horse"1969- Paraphrased- "Horse that exibit bony change in navic will also show signs of hock dysplasia".
I think-not for sure, that Palmer Wilson got a saying from Frank McGuiness years ago- "If a horse is lame low in front it wil show in the diagonial leg, if the horse is lame high behind it will show on the same side front"

Very interesting dear Sirs...

I just wokred on a navicular horse that in the words of the Vet,"the Navicular bone looks like a saw blade..." I was able to give the horse relief. This conversation makes me think I need to look for something more in the diagnol hind when I return to see the animal.

What would I be looking for if there were to be hock dysplaysia?

Thank you for enlightening me gentleman.

NBS will solve all the problems.:cool:

Jaye,

I did not mention NBS. Nor was I trying to get into a debate or discussion on it . I was seeking information from individuals more knowledgable than I; that were beginning a discussion along the lines of something that I have/had been running into.

Seeings how you are not willing to answer ones questions; I will go on a quest and find the answers for myself. OH wait... That is what you would like; for a person to not ask questions but rather seek "self-enlightenment."

During this journey, should I consult you at all? Or should I consider myself lucky for escaping with just a quick downgrading comment towards NBS?

Thank you,
Tony
