Small or large intestines can be the source of intestinal colic, which feels like a cramp.
CAUSES OF INTESTINAL COLIC
Food and liquid cannot pass through the body because of a blockage, which can be brought on by any of the following factors:
- the development of scar tissue following previous pelvic or abdominal surgery
- Crohn’s disease and other inflammatory bowel diseases
- Impacted feces
- Diverticula, the pouches that develop on the colon’s wall, are inflamed or infected.
- Cancerous tumors
SYMPTOMS OF INTESTINAL COLIC
- not being able to urinate or expel gas
- Vomiting
- Loss of appetite
- Abdominal distension
The cause of intestinal colic is distension and spasm of the bowel; the epigastrium or umbilical region is where the pain is felt, while the hypogastria is where it is felt. The palpating hand can feel the hardening of the bowel; relief from pressure separates it from peritonitis; and occasionally, it is accompanied by diarrhoea.
