Hello. Without pictures & video, a full description of gait, & previous use history, it is impossible to say what is going on. Was this a previous injury, or a congenital defect? You really need to have an equine veterinarian examine your horse. I see there are two in the vicinity of your zip code. Dixie Equine in Madison, & Strong River in Brandon. I hope you can give them a call & help you with your horse. Good luck & take care.
