A member asked:
For what reasons might a patient with sbo (small bowel obstruction) vomit and having abdominal pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Because nothing: Is getting past the obstruction and the bowel above the obstruction becomes dilated and that causes pain. This is a medical emergency, so be sure to see a doctor or er right away.
