Good conformation in the limbs leads to improved movement and decreased likelihood of injuries. Large differences in bone structure and size can be found in horses used for different activities, but correct conformation remains relatively similar across the spectrum. Structural defects, as well as other problems such as injuries and infections, can cause lameness, or movement at an abnormal gait. Injuries to and problems with horse legs can be relatively minor, such as stocking up, which causes swelling without lameness, or quite serious. Even leg injuries that are not immediately fatal may still be life-threatening to horses, as their bodies are adapted to bear weight on all four legs and serious problems can result if this is not possible.

  • Os membros do cavalo são estruturas feitas de dezenas de ossos, articulações, músculos, tendões e ligamentos que suportam o peso do corpo equino. Eles incluem dois aparelhos: o aparelho suspensor, que carrega a maior parte do peso, impede a hiperextensão da articulação e absorve o choque e o aparelho de estada, que bloqueia grandes articulações, nos membros, permitindo que os cavalos permaneçam em pé enquanto estão relaxados ou dormindo. Os membros desempenham um papel importante no movimento do cavalo, com as pernas desempenhando as funções de absorção de impacto, o peso do rolamento, e o fornecimento de empuxo. Em geral, a maior parte do peso é suportado pelo pernas da frente, enquanto as pernas traseiras fornecem propulsão. Os cascos também são importantes estruturas de apoio, absorção (pt)
