Girth pain, wither pain and the stomach ulcer connection.
Horses commonly show some discomfort when their girth is being fastened. Ones reacting strongly to the girth are usually termed 'girthy' or 'cinchy'.

Too often stomach ulcers are the only causes considered, however there is a large range of causes and continually handing out money for stomach ulcer medications might actually not be doing your horse a lot of good if all the other causes are not addressed. In this presentation we go through the intricate web of girth pain and ways it can more appropr...

Using a specifically shaped and specifically placed shim of a foam with simila...

    subscribed. This guy cares about horses. Educating the humans that look after the horses. And I just bet that the racing industry loves cortisone and other symptom masking treatments... This guy gives me hope that there are some well trained and educated genuine horse lovers that are willing to share what they know. Thanks

    Thank you very much for these videos. I am an everyday horse keeper, but have found them very helpful for my everyday horses. This one on birth trauma I have found particularly pertinent to a mare in my keeping. She shows clear signs of birth trauma in the withers. I would be interested in a part two of this topic, in that how does all this affect a horse in the hindquarters, where the horse has grown to become very crooked with clearly different hindquarter muscling and movement. Issues with ligaments and the such.

  • @kathyandrews4528
    @kathyandrews4528 2 года назад

    So frustrating that most vets are not taught appropriate palpation techniques and miss so much lamness from back and pelvic issues. A holistic approach is always best, and these things take time , expertise and effort - not all owners/managers have this, sadly. Thankyou for a straightforward explanation and your personal views based on experience, inorder to promote healing.

    This is so informative. Thank you. I brought mine cheap as had mild ks shown on X-ray. When home discovered pregnant. She lost the foal after a traumatic birth where the foal died and she was suspended upside down to retrieve it. We then discovered undeveloped dead twin and 3000 worm count which may have caused the stillborn. She then had treatment for ulcers. Then physio as her pelvis was lowered to the near side. I discovered a fantastic cranial sacral lady and she has done wonders My girls getting stronger and better with correct riding and pole work etc. I wish you were in uk I’d have you on speed dial!!! Glad to know I’m on the right lines and would say everyone should try all your suggestions before surgery.
