pin firing
Pin firing, also known as thermocautery,〔 is the treatment of an injury to a horse's leg, by burning, freezing, or dousing it with acid or caustic chemicals.〔("Pinfiring proves obsolete" ), ''Thoroughbred Times'', Brian Nielsen and Jessica Fattal, November 21, 2006〕 This is supposed to induce a counter-irritation and speed and/or improve healing. This treatment is used more often on racehorses than on other performance horses. It is sometimes used in the treatment of bucked shins or splint, curb, or chronic bowed tendons.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Pin Firing )〕 There was also the theory that it would "toughen" the leg of the horse. This treatment is prevalent in equine veterinary books published in the early 20th century; however many present-day veterinarians and horse owners consider it barbaric and a cruel form of treatment.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Pin firing: A needless pain )〕 It is not generally taught in veterinary schools today.〔
