Re: [RC] Wind Puffs - Tiffany D'VirgilioWindpuffs don't ever go away. My mare has had hers for years, and she seems to be conditioning and competing just fine. No lameness at all. Do a websearch and the vet articles will tell you the same. They don't go away because there is a bulge in the bursa, even if you were to get it drained, it would just fill back up.Tiff On Mar 16, 2005, at 7:47 AM, Barbara McCrary wrote: We had a horse that had wind puffs when we bought him at age nine, and he had them when he died at age 32-1/2. In the meanwhile, he did some quite phenomenal things in endurance and ride & tie. The windpuffs seemed not to have bothered him. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
