Musculoskeletal

Horses are highly athletic animals, but their musculoskeletal system is prone to various disorders that can impact their mobility and performance. Common conditions include joint diseases such as arthritis, tendon injuries, and laminitis, which affects the hooves. Muscular disorders, including myopathies, can cause stiffness, pain, and weakness. Bone diseases may arise due to nutritional deficiencies or congenital issues. Proper care, balanced nutrition, and early diagnosis are essential to maintaining a horse’s musculoskeletal health.
