New Horse injures Madonna

Madonna is one of 30 Million americans that ride horses each year. And now she is one of over 200,000 who suffer each year from horse-riding injury. And it happened on her 47 th birthday.

Madonna was thrown while riding a new horse and sustained three broken ribs, a broken collarbon, and a broken hand. Shows us things can go wrong even for those with experience. Some things cannot be prevented.

The American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons has some great tips specific to horseback riding and injury prevention.
