Abdominal pain due to intestinal obstruction

Abdominal pain due to intestinal obstruction

Usually the pain is cramping and very intense. Initially, the pain corresponds to the part of the intestine where the obstruction occurred (strangulation of a loop of intestine, strangulation, obstruction of the lumen by a tumor, etc.). Only after a while the pain becomes diffuse and spreads throughout the abdomen. Particularly severe pain is observed with strangulation obstruction - nodulation, torsion, strangulation. The pain can be so severe that patients quickly fall into a state of shock.
