I am, I guess, disappointed that there isn't anything specific he says that can be done to treat these injuries that doesn't have side effects, or in his opinion, has any good effects! Other than cold therapy with ice, I am disappointed in traditional therapies, i.e., pinfiring, blistering (as he is also). What are we to do for our horses, other than rest & recuperation? I guess I was looking for the ultimate answer..if there is one. David is definitely a vet who has to have scientific proof that something works, be it traditional or alternative therapies!

This review is from: Concise Guide To Tendon and Ligament Injuries in the Horse (Howell Equestrian Library) (Paperback)
This book is a general explaination of injuries in the horse. It gives a good look at the anatomy of the legs, and it helped me to understand better what my horse is going through with his injury. I do have some knowledge of these injuries, so it was more of a refresher course on the subject. It also gave me some information I did not know. A good book to use as a quick reference guide, but not to be used as a complete understanding of these types of injuries. Not an indepth look at the tendon and ligament injuries, but a good start into helping someone understand them. I will probably get more books on the subject, but then that's just me.
