Digital Tendon Sheath
Date: N/A
Name of Horse: N/A
Age of Horse: N/A
Breed of Horse: N/A
Sex of Horse: Stallion
Injury or Condition: Badly torn digital tendon sheath on my
thoroughbred. Horse on three legs the day after running around
paddock in the mud. Ultrasound revealed severe tearing of the
digital sheath, but tendon core intact. This occurred in February.
Was on stall rest for two weeks and given bute in AM and banamine
in PM. Also given Adequan IM injections every four days for
1 month. Banamine given once a day up until this month.
Treatment: The Infratonic 8 treatments were started this month
on a daily basis using the Mind (alpha waves) for 10 minutes,
followed by Body (alpha/delta waves) for 10 minutes and back
to Mind for 10 minutes. The pain level has decreased so significantly
that the anti-inflammatory medications have been stopped and
he is now either being hand-walked for 45 minutes or turned
out in a small paddock.
Outcome: He is moving around the stall without hopping and
is walking sound. The swelling in the leg is also significantly
improved and he is now resting the good leg as much as the injured
leg. I am going to continue daily treatments until he is re-scanned
in another couple of months. My horse is happy, walking normally,
rolling and getting up without struggling and off the anti-inflammatory
medications.
