Capua Leg

Capua Leg is a type of leg injury in horses. It is a very serious injury, which is caused by overwork or too much strain on the horse's leg. The most common cause is from running or jumping too fast or too far. When the leg is strained too much, the muscles, tendons, and ligaments can stretch and tear, causing the horse a lot of pain. Resting the horse for a long period of time is the only way to help it heal.
