Intestinal Obstruction – Small Intestine – Large Intestine – Medical Malpractice Lawsuit Attorney

What Is an Intestinal Obstruction?

An intestinal obstruction is a blockage that is found in the intestines. This blockage will prevent the normal movement of food and stools to be naturally pushed out of the intestines during a bowel movement. The normal route of food into the body leads food into the mouth, it is digested in the stomach, then the food moves into the intestines after it is broken down into the nutritional aspects used by the body, and the rest turns into feces or stools. The stools are eliminated from the body as wastes in a bowel movement. When you have an intestinal obstruction, all or part of this process is broken, there are no stools and there is a complete blockage of stools from your body. In that case, you will build up toxic wastes in the body that were meant to be expelled, but they were not pushed out, on account of the blockage. This condition can be fatal, as the toxic wastes build up in the body, causing other complications.
