Bowel Obstruction Symptoms

bowel obstruction

The Symptoms of Bowel Obstruction are:

  • Vomiting - contents of the bowel above the point of blockage back-up until they're vomited.
  • Constipation - contents of the bowel below the point of blockage get evacuated and aren't able to be replaced leading to no further bowel movements.
  • Abdominal pain - caused by the bowel struggling to push food past the blockage.
  • Distention - collection of air and food unable to escape downwards leads to blowing up of the gut like a tire.
