Re: [RC] swollen sheath - Barbara McCrary

Check with your vet to see if he has Pigeon Fever.  If so, either the vet can lance it or you will have to let it take its course and break and drain on its own.  We had a horse one time that had it inside his sheath and it was very painful to him.

Subject: [RC] swollen sheath

I just went to change Jack's bandages and his sheath is swollen on one side and there is a lump as large as my hand on his belly in front of his sheath.
I cleaned it and no beans.   Any ideas of what it could be and what I should do?
