DMare has bruised her heel - I think she stood on a rock when we were out hacking although I didn't notice any lameness at the time so maybe it happened in the field. Her heel (hind leg) is red and angry looking but no sign of broken skin or infection. So far she's had 3 days slobbing around the field. As I said, she doesn't seem lame but I'd hate to cause her discomfort. How long would you give a horse off for a bad bruise?
