🦴Fractures of the ACB are not uncommon in horses and can have many different configurations.
Rehab protocol :
🦴Surgical procedure was not an option
🦴Fixation to prevent carpal flexion according to the literature
🦴Vibrating platform with evolutionary frequency 20hz -50hz 20 min
* Most notably, riders have found that horses simply move better when receiving regular Vitafloor therapy, due to increased blood circulation to warm and relax muscles. Research has also evidenced that Vitafloor increases bone density and improves hoof quality.
the horse was euthanized due to another incident

Overriding Spinous Processes (Kissing spines) in horses - Stage III
♥️ Beautiful Image of all back …

another beautiful x-ray of the thoracolumbar region 📸
s.simoes images of our students' ( ) beautiful studies ♥️
Pathophysiology
📸Short backed horses may have crowding of the normal number of spinous processes.
📸Overriding spinous processes can also arise when the back undergoes excessive dorsi-flexion, eg as potentially occurs in jumping horses, or spinal maneuvres, eg as occurs in high quality dressage horses. 📸However, biomechanical studies have shown no evidence for increased movement in the T13-T18 region compared to other parts of the thoracolumbar spine and so this explanation may not be correct.
📸Another hypothesis is that the weight of a saddle and rider causes a downward force on the T13-T18 area, consequently forcing the spinous processes in this region to become close together. However, overriding spinous processes have been described in unbroken/unridden horses and horses that compete in athletic but non-ridden disciplines (driving, trotting races).
📸Most commonly seen between T13-T18.
📸Often painless false joints ( formation) form between impinging spinous processes in those animals showing no clinical signs.

Ainda acerca da saga Termografia 📸
📸 A captação e interpretação de um padrão térmico permite monitorizar um status inflamatório de uma lesão já previamente diagnosticada através de métodos de diagnóstico de referência !
📸 Claudicação 3/5 com edema generalizado da quartela no MP !

Many days are simply about the back
important items:
🦴anomalous reactions, mostly with equipment
🦴saddle fitting
🦴 test flexion/extension and lateralization movements and their amplitudes in the different regions of the spine
🦴good imaging study
🦴proper treatment of injuries found!

Joint manipulation and mobilization 🦴
diagnostic and therapeutic method allows to reduce pain and increase ROM.
the equine as an athlete benefits from daily mobilization exercises.
ask your vet!
