    What is bowel blockage?

    Dr. ANUVITHA KAMATH

    MBBS · 3 years of exp

    Bowel blockage or bowel obstruction is a condition, where there is difficulty in the passage of digested food particles normally through the bowel or digestive tract. Bowel obstruction can be of 2 types, one is constipation and the other one is obstipation. In the former, there is the absence or difficulty in the passage of stools, whereas obstipation is when there is neither passage of stools nor gas nor flatus. When there is an obstruction in the large intestines due to several factors like bowel cancer, damage to bowel nerve supply, intestinal infection, band-like adhesions, and post-operative bowel paralysis, it leads to the total absence of bowel movements and passage of stools and gas. As a result of this, stools, fluids, and gas gets collected in the intestine leading to vomiting, severe abdominal pain, distension of the abdomen, and damage to the blood supply of the intestines which can be fatal. The treatment for this is treating the underlying cause. Treatment consists of laxatives, and in severe cases, surgery may be required.
