A member asked:
Could i have intestinal pseudo obstruction but still passing stools (every 2 days) and some gas (tho i take simethicone for this)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Intestinal obstructi: Incomplete intestinal obstruction does occur but I would expect significant abdominal discomfort, some abdominal cramping and distension as well as a paucity of bowel movements. In any event If you're experiencing persistent abdominal discomfort you should be evaluated by a physician to see if testing is in order.
