Colic is the condition horses have when they have any form of digestive system pain, therefore whenever the intestines are twisted this will cause pain and so will always be referred to as colic. But there are many types of colic and not all involve twisting of the intestines.

Bowel gangrene is a life-threatening condition where there is inadequate blood supply to the intestines, leading to tissue death.

On howrse if your horse has colic should you allow it to roll?
NEVER!! Colic has different causes: a blockage in the intestines (think major constipation); severe gas which stretches the instestine; the intestines could even be displaced; and others. If the horse rolls, it could fatally injure itself by twisting sections of intestine shut, rather like a twist-tie on a bag of vegetables, or rupturing the gut. This is fatal and requires surgery to save the horse.
Should you allow you horse to role if it has a colic?
It is very important not to let a colicky horse roll. Rolling can cause the intestines to twist, possibly necessitating surgery. If you determine your horse has colic, call your veterinarian, then do everything you can to keep your horse from lying down and rolling. If possible, walk her for 15 minutes, then let her rest. Do not administer any medication without approval of your vet. Withhold food and water until the vet arrives.
Should you alow your horse to roll if it has colic?
In general, no - rolling increases the risk for torsion of the intestines and can cause strangulations, which are life-threatening medical emergencies. Without a veterinarian's diagnosis, it is difficult to tell what type of colic a horse has, so the blanket statement is to simply not allow your horse to roll. Hand walking at a steady pace is recommended, and in cases of non-surgical colic can provide the same movement and massaging of the intestines that helps pass an obstruction or get the gas bubble out.

Horses with coilc will they live?
Horses develop colic due to a blockage of their intestines from impacted food or when excess gas causes the intestines to twist and contort. Most cases of colic are not deadly when caught and treated. Minor cases can be delt with by simply walking the horse until the obstruction clears or the gas dissipates. Mineral oil can be introduced directly through a tube into the horses stomach to help as well. Severe cases of colic can be surgically treated by a vet. Horse can and do die from colic if not treated.
Can you twist your intestines?
No, because your intestines are already twisted! As far as I know.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------IMPROVEMENT:: The intestines naturally twist depending on things like what you eat. This tends to be more common than you would think. Doctors are receiving calls at least once a day about stomach pains which turn out to be twisted intestines. For the most part, the intestines will straighten themselves out within 1-2 hours. However, there is the off-chance that it may be something much more serious. This causes varying blood pressure, intense bowel pains, nausea, dizziness and headaches. SEE YOUR DOCTOR IMMEDIATELY. It's usually nothing major, but if you don't get it checked out right away, surgery might be your only option in getting better.I'm a medical nerd. d: This happened to my boyfriend recently and I had in-depth talks with the nurses, surgeon and pediatrician.
