Horse emergency: Bone fracture
The horror scenario at the stable. My horse has broken something. Our emergency card explains what I can do in this emergency situation. Because not every broken bone has to be a death sentence for the horse.
A bone fracture can be recognized by a high degree of lameness and swelling. It is possible that muscles or tendons are also injured. In the case of an open fracture, you can even see parts of the bone.
