After 5 days of rest, I took Freedom out on two light hacks. Mostly walking with a short bit of trotting. Luckily the weather cooperated. Unfortunately, while he feels a bit better, when I did try to canter him on the third day, I found that he is still having trouble with the left lead canter. Right now I’m continuing to hack him and am making sure to add some hill work to build up his muscles. I’m also considering some massage as his muscles are still probably tight from the SI pain.
Sounds good! I bet some massage would help out too 🙂
Fingers crossed he starts to show improvement soon
