Colic the cause of  is unknown.When babies cry without being  hungry, overheated, or in pain, we call it colic.  It was once thought to be a bowel problem (spasm), but now believed that colic is caused by the baby's brain not yet having learned to calm itself. There is no medicine that can cure colic. Colic usually starts between two and four weeks of age and disappears at about three months. Some babies with colic feel better if they sleep in a quiet room, are handled very gently.  Chocolate, milk, certain vegetables, spicy food, and alcohol are transmitted through breast milk may cause discomfort in the infant.

Horse colic
Colic in horses is defined as abdominal pain, but it is a clinical sign rather than a diagnosis. The term colic can encompass all forms of gastrointestinal conditions which cause pain as well as other causes of abdominal pain not involving the gastrointestinal tract.
