A member asked:
I had a ct scan done about two weeks ago and i got a copy of the results. it read that i had air-fluid in my small bowels and colon. what is that?

Gas & fluid: It is usually normal to see some air and fluid in the bowels. It also depends on why you had the study done in first place. There are conditions where this becomes important so discuss the results with your doctor
