    Wry Neck - Confused about treatment

    Take your fingers, pull the leg back and put your fingers one on each side of the leg to where the swelling of the knee is, and wiggle the bones very gently back and forth opposite of each other and see if you can feel it popping in and out that should tell you if it's broken, it may be broken...

    Wry Neck - Confused about treatment

    Was the leg from an injury?? If you can get the swelling down, that's great but with slipped tendon, it usually doesn't go down and just causes future problems, but maybe if you can splint it to keep it behind her and in a straight position it will help. Did you notice any popping once you...
