Bowel sounds: Most of the sounds you hear in your stomach and intestines are due to normal digestion and are no need for concern. Some causes of hyperactive bowel sounds include inflammatory bowel disease, food allergy, diarrhea, GI bleeding and infectious enteritis.Some times high pitched bowel sounds may be an early sign of bowel obstruction.
