A member asked:

Having incomplete bowel mvmts every5-10 min for a month. lots of gas/pain & different consistancy. had an illeus before could i be blocked again?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: You may have a partial obstruction, or something entirely different may be in progress. Strongly suggest that you see a GI doctor asap and get this worked out with exam and testing, possibly to include endoscopy. Good luck.
