Caudal heel pain is the new term for the old lameness in horses called navicular disease or navicular syndrome. This is Doc T (Geoff Tucker, DVM) and this is my version which is probably not what you have heard in the past. I use vector analysis, which is the addition of velocity plus direction, to explain why LONG TOE AND LOW HEEL conformation is the number one reason for this disease.
