8. Bowel Obstruction
A bowel obstruction is serious. Anyone with symptoms or concerns should contact their physician. This condition involves a blockage that prevents food from passing through the digestive tract. It can occur in the small or large bowel. The obstruction might be partial or total, depending on its location.
Common causes include tumors, hernias, scar tissue, volvulus, and diverticular disease. Along with nausea and vomiting, people experience a bloated stomach, tenderness and constipation.9Publishing, Harvard Health. ‘Bowel Obstruction.’ Harvard Health, www.health.harvard.edu/diseases-and-conditions/bowel-obstruction-a-to-z.
