How do you detect fistulous withers on a horse?
It will be hard to miss a fistula on your horse's withers. It will probable be swollen and may be warm to the touch. Your horse will probably be running a fever and may be lethargic or listless and may not feel like eating. Whatever you do, don't try to put a saddle on his back or ride him at all. If you think this is what is going on I think it is best to call your vet. It's hard to keep a horse's environment sanitary and he may need antibiotics. Or it may not be a fistula but some other infection.
