Overflexion of flexor tendons

  • If lesion is backwards as sole ulcers or some wall abscesses
  • Llame cow is walking on her toes.
  • She develops short toes and high heels

If regular blocking is performed block gets used form toe area.This is not a big problem for cow comfort but it can be avoided...

...by adding resin to the toe sole front hole area we can avoid this condition.

We preffer using Easy Bloc because they fit well in most claw shapes, last longer and are easy and fast to place. In some cases the have to be customized to fit the right way see overextension
