About

    Lameness in animals refers to a condition where an animal is unable to move properly due to pain or injury in their limbs. This can affect their gait, posture, and overall mobility, leading to discomfort and reduced quality of life. Lameness can be caused by a variety of factors such as trauma, joint inflammation, muscle strain, or bone fractures. Research in this area focuses on understanding the underlying causes of lameness, developing effective diagnostic methods, and exploring treatment options to alleviate pain and improve mobility in affected animals.
