Bowel obstruction is most afraid of three kinds of food, not true The causes of intestinal obstruction are mainly divided into three major categories, namely, dynamic, hemodynamic, and mechanical. Once intestinal obstruction occurs, it may cause nausea and vomiting, abdominal distension and pain, anal stop defecation and other discomforts, and the patient’s symptoms cannot be relieved simply by the way of dietary therapy. Therefore, the statement that intestinal obstruction is most feared by three kinds of food is false. Gastrointestinal decompression through nasogastric tube can drain out gastric contents and secretions, which can relieve intestinal pressure; treatment through soapy water, paraffin oil enema can stimulate intestinal peristalsis and soften dry and hard feces; scopolamine can also be given to relieve intestinal spasms; ceftriaxone, cefoxitin, can control and prevent infections; and surgery can be used if necessary. Because of intestinal obstruction treatment needs to be fasting water, so there is no “most afraid of what food”, should follow the doctor’s instructions for treatment.
