When the inflam- mation has subsided, use any ordinary stimulant or blister recommended for the purpose. Wind-galls. Wind-gall is tlie name given to those soft, puffy swellings found at the back part of the fetlock-joint, from a supjMsition that they contained air. They consist of enlargement of the little sacs, or bags, which are always found to contain a mucous fluid wherever tendons pass over joints, as at the back of the fetlock. This form may be called simple tvind-gall. In other cases, the distension is caused by an increased secretion and bulging of the cajjsular ligament of the joint itself. This form may be distinguished as compli- cated wind-f/(dl. Few horses that have done any work are free from them, and unless dependent on some more serious lesion than simple distension of these hursoi mucosce, they are of no conse- ([uence. Causes.—Hard work is ilic well-known cause of wind-gall.
