Currently, equestrian sport is developing at a rapid pace in our country and attention to this field is increasing. This, in turn, demands high-quality veterinary services for valuable horses with superior genetic traits. There are many problems significantly impeding the development of horse breeding in our country, the foremost of which are infectious and non-infectious diseases occurring in horses. This article discusses colic, which is one of the most frequently encountered conditions in horses and can lead to the animal’s death if timely treatment measures are not taken. It is no secret that colic is very common among horses and causes serious harm to horse-breeding farms. Therefore, in the present study we have attempted to elucidate the diagnosis of colic and the measures for its treatment and prevention in accordance with practical needs.
