  • Resumen

  • Thrush describes an infection that develops in the frog of one or more of the horse’s hooves, caused by a fungal or bacterial pathogen. 

    Hooves with frogs that have deep sulci are prone to becoming infected with pathogens that cause thrush. Wet and dirty environments contribute to the development of this infection as thrush-causing pathogens flourish under these conditions.

    Typical signs of a thrush infection include hoof tenderness and a foul-smelling discharge from the hoof. Prompt treatment is necessary to stop the spread of the infection.

    Management strategies to prevent thrush and support recovery aim at keeping the horse’s living environment clean.

    This podcast reviews the causes, signs and treatment of thrush in horses.
