Call your local vet. If you can, rub your hands down your horses legs, checking for bumps, scratches, and heat differences between legs.
Check your horse's back for heat or bumps, and talk to other horse owners. It could be that your horse is misinterpreting your signals.
If your horse is well accustom to you and your ways, and this is abnormal behavior, this could be a serious condition.
When in doubt, ask a more senior horse owner for advice. Or give your local horse vet a call, they might have some ideas and not need to come out to the barn.
Hope that helps.
(I know because I have worked with horses for years and I help manage a barn of 60+ injury prone horses. The vet has an established parking zone. Really. )

How do you tell if a horse has a broken leg?
Horses can break a leg in many ways; stumbling, galloping, races, fighting, and the most common, jumping. When a horse breaks its leg, it's in a lot of pain. The bone could be set, but your horse will always limp. But, if it does heal, it wont do much good, as the horse will still be in a lot of pain, as i said, limp, and may or may not get up at all. That's why most owners euthanize their horses, meaning, they put them down. You can look up ways a horse breaks it leg to find out more. Just be safe and gentle with your horse ;)

He wont . Put the feed in front of him so he can eat it. You wouldn't want to be locked in a room with your dinner outside the door.
Why wont your horse pick up her front foot for it to be cleaned?
Does it usually pick up this foot? Is there tenderness in another foot that she does not want to weight bear on them in order to pick this one up? Are you doing it correctly? I lean slightly on the leg slide my hand toward the inside of the leg and squeeze, a voice aid like "up" can be helpful.

When standing behind a horse you should?
stand slightly to the side, not directly behind, to avoid being kicked. Keep a safe distance and be aware of the horse's body language to anticipate any sudden movements. Approach the horse calmly and steadily to avoid startling it.
Horse kicks and bites and wont let touch her tummy?
It sounds like the horse may be in pain or discomfort in her tummy area. It's best to have a veterinarian check her out to rule out any health issues that may be causing her behavior. In the meantime, avoid touching or putting pressure on her tummy to prevent any further negative interactions.
