If you suspect a horse has pulled or strained a muscle in the hip area, first ensure it is in a safe and quiet environment to minimize further stress. Apply cold therapy, like ice packs or cold hosing, to reduce swelling and pain for the first 24-48 hours. Limit movement by keeping the horse in a small paddock or stall and consult a veterinarian for a proper assessment and treatment plan, which may include rest, anti-inflammatory medication, and rehabilitation exercises. Always monitor for any worsening symptoms and follow your vet's advice closely.
