Signs of pain in the ridden horse – the “whole horse” approach.
A horse in pain can be complicated and tied up in behaviours and poor performance. However their message is often simple, if you choose to notice the signs.
Everyone knows the obvious signs of pain – lameness, bucking, biting, kicking etc – but do you know the more subtle signs of pain?
Your horses’ body leaves us clues from their mouth, right through to their tail. You just need to know what to look for, and that is what I would like to help you with. Let’s have a look through some of the well known, and some of the not-so-well-known signs of pain in your horse.
Once you have then recognised some of the signs, what can we then do?
There are so many options out there, and so many opinions, it can be hard to know what is right for you and your horse. How to treat pain in the ridden horse is a very personal decision for some people. We will touch on some of the options out there such as medications, exercise, injections, shockwave therapy and much more.
