If she isn't lame and it's only fluid on the hock I would be cold hosing and walking out in hand, just for a few minutes and building up gradually. I'm assuming you've had it checked out and there's nothing underlying.

It will go down, try not to worry, keep doing what you are doing. One of mine had same years ago but I noticed he would put pressure on it getting up in the mornings. So, very big bed, though i am sure Lilly has that already.

Jesskwa google pressage bandage, My stallion just had a very bad injury to the hock and they were fab. Like a neoprene with a zip and designed to alleviate the pressure points,

I got mine from the vets. Its got two pads inside, that fit inside each side of the hock. Zips ups from way down cannon to above the hock. Was prescribed for a capped hock, but it only helped that about 50%. Was brilliant for this swelling though.

Thats the one Lovepink. Thats a pressage dressing. Mine came from vets too but you can buy them direct (was no difference in price for mine) Seb had his on for weeks and it did a fab job of keeping the swelling down and the dressings in place.
