Small bowel and colonic disease

Small bowel and colonic disease

A partial or total blockage of the small intestine is known as small intestinal obstruction. Digested items will continue to pass into the large intestine if the small bowel is working properly. A partial or total obstruction in the small bowel might prevent contents from going through. Waste materials and gases build up in the area above the blockage as a result. It may also prevent nutrients and fluids from being absorbed. The term "colonic illnesses" refers to conditions that affect the intestines. Irritable bowel illness (Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis), Diverticular disease, and colon cancer are among the diseases covered under this field.
