Have you seen back pain in horses with arthritic hocks

Great information. Thanks!!!

What supplements would be recommended

How much does the medication for cushings cost. I just took an old mare that I bought after being lied to, to the vet for a pot belly that looked unnatural to me. She told me the horse may have cushings, she didn't do a test to find out. I don't know what the best thing to do for her.

Scoping doesn't check for hind gut ulcers though, your better off just treating for symptoms

Thanks for being here !!

What do you think of PSGAG & HA given as suppositories

What if your horse has no symptoms? My horse cannot shake his summer sores. Ive tried 5 vets and two of them has seen him twice. Still has summer sores.

My horse has Cushings and has chronic sinusitis from a tooth abscess. Tooth has been pulled but infection remains. Antibiotics and lavage not working after several weeks. Any other suggestions?

What can i use for horses grams?

Can you talk about colic. I lost a horse recently and I tried everything but it was to little too late. I want to learn more about it and how to be prepared to treat and prevent death. What do at what stages and what to look out for. Any tips?

Can you give suggestions on how to administer prescind? My Mare refuses to eat treats or grain with prescind. She can smell it through a treat.

Is a clicking sound in the back legs a sign of arthritis in the hawk?

Thank you for this very informative video, I really appreciate it and just subscribed! So helpful!! I do have a question. I understand it depends on the horse, but once treatment begins how long before the horse can experience relief, on average?

Very informative! The chewing or grinding of teeth is something I noticed in my mare along with colic signs like biting her sides. I took her in to be scoped and she had actively bleeding ulcers. This is the calmest most sane horse in our barn and one we would never associate with being upset. This video has been very helpful. She’s currently at the vet hospital receiving three of the meds you mentioned. They also want me to start using Purina Outlast in addition to more grazing and more frequent meals. She’s had a biopsy, just in case.

thankyou so, so, so much

What are other options instead of using the pink pill

My mini mare was Just diagnosed with Cushings. More videos on the topic would be appreciated. Thank you!

Good video but it’s sad you didn’t mention any therapies other than corporate created drugs. Cold laser therapy? Message? Lifestyle and diet choices that don’t encourage inflammation in the body? Considerate training practices? Tell me you don’t feel amazing after a deep tissue massage?

great information! Thank you

Thanks for this valuable information Dr Matt. My POA is 29 and just diagnosed with Cushings. Next step is to discuss his treatment with the vet. His clinical signs are minimal at this time. Should a pony his age even be treated? Will the treatment potentially improve his quality of life?

Could you do a video on how to treat and manage hoof Injuries whether just bruised or where there is pus inside (opened up by the vet or farrier) and talk about how these should be cleaned/ managed/poulticed etc please?

What is you opinion on turmeric and devils claw supplements?

How would you treat a horses hocks if they're not getting the terms on 5/8 and 1/2 mi harness race tracks

My horse has Cushings and is now having a hard time keeping weight on. Is there anything that can help with the weight ?

I have a two year old QH that just had rads done in her hock. We’re at the point that we’re bone on bone. She gave me a few options. I-rap-prp-or surgical. We’re planning on turning her out for a year anyhow. Do you recommend doing any of these treatments before turning her out? Thoughts on the options she gave? Thanks for doing what you do!

My horse is 30 years old and suffers from severe rain rot here in south Florida. What is my next step after she doesn’t respond to topical treatment ? Also would and Immune Boost injection help?

Hello, thank you for the information on Cushings. At the rescue ranch where I am a volunteer we have a senior horse that has Cushings and is on medication for it. My question is since the horse has very long hair (we are in Arizona) is it okay to buzz the hair off? We soon will be in triple digits temps and we would like to help keep the horse cool.

Thank you for the video. Very informative and helpful

Thank you for these videos. I just found them. This is very helpful

What happened to you Matt. This videos are great.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Excellent information! Thank you for this video.

Thank you so much this was very informative!!

My donkey was recently diagnosed with PPID and is currently on prascend. What causes PPID?

Hi. Thanks for a very informative video. Can you elaborate a bit about how the cribbing makes it worse? Im not sure i understand the longer duration on a emty stomach? I have 2 geldings who crib bites (bought fro the age of 5 well knowing they where cribbing). One has been treated twice this year for stomache ulcers (prooven by scope), and I have now asked my vet for an excamination/ultra sound scan of colon and abdonimal, since last treatment didnt make him better and I find his symptoms pointing towards a hindgut desease. But i do find a lot of different oppinions on whether or not to prevent the horse from cribbing. I know his was restricted cribbing at previously owner. Could it increase his level of stress? Thanks in behalf. Regards Lizzie

Do you recommend Equioxx or Adequan? Could we do both?

So sad that people lie about their horses. Just bought a great pony for my daughter (so I thought) guess what Cushing disease. My vet suggested Prascend. I believe it will work from research on the internet.

Like you said giving good supplements to horses is true, like us taking good vitamins.

What are your thoughts on shockwave therapy? Also once the hock fuses is the horse feeling less pain? Do they have the same amount of mobility?

Do you recommend ice packs after being ridden to prevent inflammation as well? Thanks!

Finally! what I've been searching all over the internet for, straight to the point and very informative and detailed. Thanks so much for the information. I'm wondering what you think about using "wonder dust" on a wound daily, after the proud flesh has been removed. Would the wound ever be able to heal if your constantly burning it? Help! thank you.

Very informative

How frequently can the Adequan regimen be repeated?

You mentioned cushioned horses losing weight or hard to keep weight on. I have a horse that has classic signs of Cushings but has no problem keeping weight on. I’ve also had ponies over the years that had cushings and they were always heavier. Is this common?

Informative video!!

What do you think about Prevecox?

This is really helpful. I teach veterinary technology, and I'm going to incorporate this video into this semester's physiology lesson on the musculoskeletal system. Thank you.

I know you cannot give specific medical advice, but I have a question. Can a horse with moderate hock arthritis be ridden gently? Trail riding at the walk and bits of trot? I ride an older belgian mare who becomes a bit symptomatic in the colder months. She loves to go out walking but becomes a bit stiff and limpy after too much trot. I believe she will be started on adequine soon by her owner.
