I was kicked by a horse that I've been taking care of for a while now. She has a damaged hoof from her previous owners but I still have to clean the junk out of her hooves in case there are rocks so she doesn't get an abscess. I was trying to clean that hoof and she kicked me in the leg. Yes it was painful and I cried for no reason but then I was like SUCK IT UP BRI, YOU'RE EMBARRASSING YOURSELF. It stings like HELL and it hurts to walk. It's gonna hurt to take a shower. I just put ice on it, and I should have as soon as it happened. So, ya has anyone experienced this before?
Forums General Chit-Chat Has anyone ever been kicked by a horse?
I haven't, but a friend of mine has, at least twice. This last time, she got trampled and is still recovering.
@Totalanimefan: I don't think it's that serious.
@onsenmark: oh my goodness, I hope she's okay! That sounds awful
My feet have been stepped on twice by the same horse, Patches, the same one that kicked me. Idk y she hates me so much lol

Yes, several times. We had a few horse in high school and they hated my guts. A small horse was alright, but I'm sure that the 3 big black horses wanted me dead. I've been kicked, bitten and one hit me with its head against my back. The result was a few broken ribs, several bruised ribs and a bruised spine.
@Tuijp: Oh wow, you had it bad! I only work with two horses and I'm not even really sure what kinds they are, I know one is a Tennessee walking horse.
That sounds so painful.
I personally have not experienced that, but my sister cares for and rides horses and recently the one horse slid in mud down a hill and they both went down.

@Tuijp: oh geez I'm sure that's not true

@Tuijp: That's odd..
@Totalanimefan: I am :)
@Shark: It is but luckily it was only my leg and not my face lol

@Totalanimefan: Why were you worried? No one's ever worried about me..
I think if you’ve been kicked by a horse you have a reason to cry. I can imagine that hurts! I work in the hospital and I’ve actually taken care of a patient that got kicked by a horse in just the right spot and fractured her leg. The healing time on that injury was no joke. Horses are beautiful creatures but they are ridiculously strong.
@RainbowPanda: She's fine, more or less. She's still recovering, though, but she can get up and about. Within reason. :vanora_sweat:
@llyr: oh wow luckily mine isn't too serious, I'll probably have a bruise tomorrow tho, who knows and I won't be able to shave til it heals which sucks >.< And it started hurting again, whenever something touches it like when I put it on my bed to turn over onto my right side it hurt like crazy.
@onsenmark: Well that's good!
@onsenmark: Well that's good!
@RainbowPanda: yes and it can sometimes leave a rather nasty in color bruise to.
how are the colors looking if you have a bruise from the horse that kicked you?
is it a front hoof? best not to stand in front of the horse or
behind try more off to the side if you can.

@RainbowPanda: I’m glad it wasn’t more serious! Hopefully you have a quick recovery and it doesn’t bother you for too long.

@Unicorn: Back hoof, and there is no bruise woohoo just a mark and small bump
@llyr: Ty, I'm sure it'll go away soon(or at least I hope it does)

@RainbowPanda: small like goose egg on the leg interesting but still painful. Good luck on healing may take some time.
If you can’t say something nice, Don’t say anything at all!
@Unicorn: no it's not like that lol it just feels like a bump not like an egg or anything
