Unfortunately the cost of treatment for septic arthritis is expensive s as well as lengthy, so 
it is important to remember this when monitoring the  foalÕs progress. The prognosis is 
guarded and only 26% of foals went on to perform their intended function. Also, it is 
possible that this problem will occur even after the current treatment is completed.  Stall 
rest for at least 2 weeks is essential and activity should be strictly monitored after that 
time. Please feel free to contact us at any time, especially because of the serious nature of 
this condition. You have an appointment in one week for the first recheck.
