Colic is a catch-all term for a stomach ache in horses. But it can be caused by many things not just 2 different types. Internal parasites, 'stones' comparable to gall stones in humans, twisted gut, sand colic are just a few of causes of colic in horses.

Sometimes a reason is never discovered. I have a mare that used to colic once a year and I never knew what caused the problem.
