Horses are a common breed of domestic pets. They are also used for recreation purpose for humans such as for horse riding, racing events, polo, etc. They require a high degree of health care to prevent infections and disease outbreak. Some of the most prominent diseases in horses are colic, equine encephalomyelitis, azoturia, west nile virus, etc. Colic refers to a series of conditions characterized by variable degrees of abdominal pain. It is the most common digestive disorder in horses. Equine encephalomyelitis is caused by mosquitoes which carry viruses.
