Leaflet that helps horse owners understand navicular disease

CEVA Animal Health have produced a leaflet to help horse owners understand the diagnosis and treatment of navicular disease, which can be a complex and sometimes confusing condition because of its multiple causes.

Navicular disease can be difficult to diagnose and management of the condition can be a challenge for both vets and horse owners. The new leaflet helps owners get to grips with all aspects of the disease from the clinical signs to the procedures used to obtain a formal diagnosis. It then covers the various treatment options available including corrective farriery, analgesia, bisphosphonates and surgery. Diagrams and photographs help to ensure that the information is clear, concise and easy to follow.

Copies of the leaflet are available free of charge from your local equine vet practice.
