Horses are notorious for sustaining injuries that need cold therapy in hard to treat areas.
Swelling is an important clinical sign and you should consult your vet about the site of the swelling to discuss the best management for your horse, as he may require a veterinary examination and further specific treatment.
Here, veterinarian Jo Dudney of the Liphook Equine Hospital, shares her tried and tested cold therapy techniques -- and they were so clever, we thought you'd like to see them in action!
What is cold therapy?
Cold therapy is a treatment to help reduce soft tissue inflammation, which is the body's natural reaction to injury.
Cold hosing a flexor tendon or suspensory ligament
Equipment:
Hose pipe
Horse standing tied
Step-by-step:
1. Tie or cross-tie your horse in a secure area.
2. Turn the hose pipe on with the flow directed away from the horse.
3. Slowly direct the flow towards your horse's leg, starting with the hoof.
4. Work your way up the tendon to the back of the knee so that the water flows down the leg.
5. Do not cold hose for longer than 20 minutes.
How does it work?
Cold therapy cools the affected area which causes the local blood vessels to constrict, therefore reducing the blood flow to the area -- which helps reduce the swelling, reduces the body's 'over-reaction' to an injury, and therefore also relieves the pain.
When cold therapy can help:
Tendon, muscle and ligament injuries.
First aid to reduce pain, heat and swelling - often while you wait for your vet to arrive.
Swollen joints.
Reducing swelling around wounds and, therefore, aiding their healing.
Reducing generalized swelling in lymphangitis and cellulitis.
Pain relief in mild cases of concussion and jarring.
As with any type of treatment, always seek professional advice before starting so that an accurate diagnosis can be made.
Never apply ice directly onto the skin as it can cause ice burns, and don't apply cold therapy for longer than 20 minutes. (Less)
