strain of breathing
Flared nostrils
Tachypnea breathing more rapidly than normal
Wheezing or rattling sounds when breathing
Weight loss

Initially horses with RAO tend to experience symptoms only when exercising. However horses with more severe disease display symptoms even when at rest. These horses have a persistent cough and often heave their sides in and out with the effort of breathing.

Your horses ability to exercise or work will greatly diminish as the disease progresses.

Recurrent airway obstruction in horses is similar to asthma in humans and is believed to be an allergic response to inhaled antigens primarily dust mold spores hay and straw. When the horse inhales these common allergens its airways respond by clamping shut bronchospasm narrowing bronchoconstriction and secreting mucus.

This provides a sample of cells from the horses lungs as well as the secretions within the airways. Testing this sample can reveal the presence of infection andor inflammatory changes in the cells 1
