RE: [RC] Vet-ish Advice - Rae CallawayWhat were the physical manifestations of him breaking a sinus? Just the bloody nose? My boy, General, attacked a trailer when he was 3 and broke his forehead. For about 3 weeks he had a jibbah that would make the halter show people drool! When the swelling went down, he had a pretty deep dent in his dish - maybe about 3/4 - 1 inch deep in the center? Other than a slight predilection to respiratory infections, it hasn't affected him any. It does scare me a little to realize how close he came to killing himself, but now it's just a conversation piece. I do have a friend that shows and she keeps asking me when I'm going to get a silicone implant to fill the hole in. <g> I told her we'll think about it when he gets his SAG card, 'cos that's what those Hollywood types do!

Maybe he just whacked hard enough to cause it to swell. Horses are so bloody inventive.
