Horses; Horses; Horses; CHR 1887; PRO Smith, James Somers, Jr. (donor). 840 DISEASES AND THEIE TEEATMENT. In some extreme cases where inflammation runs high, and is allowed to continue very long, this separation of the wall from the internal structure may be continued so far as to cause ulceration of the coronet and loss of the entire hoof ; but this is rare. There is no cure for chronic founder. All that can be done is to palliate it to the best advantage. Some good practitioners, when they suspect any exudate at the toe, and a separation of the 1am- iniB, open the toe, so as to give free vent to it. This I would regard good practice. When there is some dropping of the sole, the best way to produce a healthy condition of circulation and cell-growth is to put on tips or very thin shoes that will allow pressure upon the sole. (See Tip's, page 643) ; better still in addition would be allowing the horse to run on soft or gravelly ground. (See standing on ashes, etc., on next. -Inferior view of pedal bone, referred to in text. Peditis, or Inflammation of the Os Pedis. • When there is severe inflammation of the feet (laminitis) the Periosteum (membrane covering the bone) and the pedal bone sometimes become involved, when it is termed Peditis. This is indicated by the horse showing intense pain, getting up and lying down often. No local treatment seems to check the structural changes that go on ; it will run from one to two months; the horse has a ravenous appetite all the time, and as a rule does not lose flesh. If temperature rises, give sedative treatment,—opium, aconite with nitrate
