Slight swelling at the tendon site behind the front leg.
buite seems to help- do I wrap?

Hello kristi,
I am a bit confused the title of your post and the post itself does not exactly match. Are you suggesting the foot problem is causing the swelling? If not why do you think you are getting swelling?

Slight swellings of the leg don't often need to be wrapped but let me give you a reference that explains the indications for wrapping legs see, Diseases of Horses » First Aid » Bandaging Horses.
