Alright, so my 4 yr old Warmblood, 16.3hh, is having problems with her hind leg. She is getting x-rayed on the 17th. Supposedly, its from growing to fast. However, I am a little worried now. Today I checked out her hind legs, where she's sensitive to the touch now and will threaten to kick, and on her pastern's she has growths. Yes, horses have chestnuts and small similar things on their hocks, but my horse happens to have one that is growing, alot. It may be nothing, but Im wondering if it has to do with her current lameness. If it is, it may be from over growth. But, now, Im extremely nervous seeing as high ringbone can promote a growth. (?) From today.

Heres the best photo I could get. Its growing in 3 seperate little things. It may be just weird, like some chestnuts, but I have no idea.
