[QUOTE="milkmaid, post: 654658, member: 852"] msscamp -- long explanation short, banamine inhibits mucous secretions from the stomach (which protect the stomach lining) and can lead to ulcers. tom -- without seeing the calf it's hard to say, but I don't recall seeing swelling in any other calves with contracted tendons that I've had, and heat in the joint is not a good sign. Any cuts on the fetlock area? I'd suspect the guy who had her before let her walk on rough ground and she's developed a joint infection there. Saw that once before. Might try PVC pipe cut in half and padded as splints, then put her on a stronger antibiotic. [/QUOTE]
