Best Answer

Back in those times, colic was mostly handled by walking a horse into near exhaustion, as there wasn't very many, if any equine veterinarians who knew what the exact causes were. Some people may have attempted surgery, but this would have been exceedingly rare and likely would have had poor results. Some horse people may have attempted to bleed a horse or to give some form of medicine, but typically the colic either resolved itself or the horse died.

How do you stop your horse from colic?

There isn't much you can do to end a round of colic once it starts. Colic is a generic term meaing abdominal pain and can be caused by anything from excessive gas to the intestines tying themselves in knots and cutting off the blood supply. If your animal appears to have severe colic, the best recommendation is to call your veterinarian for advice as he/she can determine what kind of colic it is and how to treat it. There are some steps you can take to help prevent colic from starting, particularly in horses. These include removing horses from pastures or padlocks with sandy turf, providing a consistent diet with adequate roughage and monitoring your horse for normal bowel movements.

What should be given to a horse for stomach ache?

This depends on what you mean by 'stomach ache'. For ulcers the treatment is typically a 28 day course of Omeprazole followed by a drug such as Cimetidine to help heal the stomach and prevent recurrence. You would also likely have to change the way the horse is managed in some way or ways. For colic you should call a equine veterinarian immediately, over 900,000 horses in the US are treated for colic per year on average. It is a life threatening event and improper care can result in death. There are many products on the market that claim to help stop or prevent colic, but these claims have not been proven yet and should not be used in place of proper veterinarian care. For other pains. For pains not stemming from ulcers or colic you should contact your vet and have them do a health exam on your horse to figure out what is causing the pain and how to properly treat it.
