Acute Abdomen: If the symptoms described started after a horse fell on the abdomen, there might be a bleed somewhere or a fracture of the pelvis. Please seek urgent medical help at ER.

ER NOW!: Please proceed to your closest ER now. The swollen abdomen after the fall is a dangerous sign. Call 911.

Be seen...: I'm not sure if this is trying to say that the one who had the accident is having abdominal symptoms. If so, she needs to be evaluated in ER now. Either way, even if the symptoms are not being experienced by the one who had the accident, they warrant medical evaluation.
