A member asked:
How long does abdominal distension associated with volvulus last?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Minimal: Once the volvulus is relieved the distension will resolve. If mechanical relief of volvulus is used then relief should be fairly rapid. If surgery is used it may be a few days for the ileus to resolve.
