If you ar talking about colic it is caused by the horse not being cooled off after a workout or sometimes being moves to different places like a new barn. You could recognize this by the horse rolling a lot, looking likes its trying to itch its stomach, or not eating or drinking. This usually occurs when a horse with colic is permitted to lie down and roll on the ground, and is the reason a colicky horse should ALWAYS be kept walking until the vet arrives.
