After a long break I'm writing another article. This time of growth disorders in foals.
include growth disorders:
- deformities
- axial deviation
- rotation deformity
- tendon deformities
- osteochondrosis
- joint surface changes
- OCD or chips
- cysts
- Physitis / Epiphysitis
- inflammation of the growth
The prevalence of stunting is generally underestimated. Depending on the definition and processing of the data is found in the literature for normally reared foals a frequency of 10% to 50%. The growth of disease is osteochondrosis up to 25% of the foals. Not always, there is permanent damage in the adult horse. Some disorders require but a very rapid intervention to prevent damage.
The article explains the causes, consequences and therapeutic possibilities of various diseases.
