Almost all of these symptoms are also actions your horse does daily in very healthy condition. so no don't call if your horse, Yawns, paws, seats, stretches kicks at the belly. This is how vets get you. Now if they are doing these things excessively also with other actions, like not wanting to work, or moody, and you can just tell your horse is behaving differently then call.
Colic is the leading medical cause of death in horses, vets are not always trying to “get you”, instead they want to ensure your horse is healthy. However it’s true that some of these behaviors can be caused by other things, thus why you do a comprehensive exam and consider multiple signs of colic
