Can you massage a bowel obstruction?

Whether or not massage is allowed for intestinal obstruction depends on the period of the patient’s treatment. Massage is not recommended in the early stage of treatment, and can be appropriate after stabilization in the middle stage of treatment.
In the more serious treatment of intestinal obstruction at the beginning of the treatment, the patient needs to take fasting and water fasting, supplemental nutrient solution and the corresponding treatment methods. Massage is not recommended at this time, massage will stimulate the intestinal tube, leading to intestinal peristalsis accelerated, at this time the intestinal tract is not completely open, making the patient appear more frequent abdominal pain.
After the patient’s condition is stabilized and in the middle of the treatment, the peristalsis of the intestines has become slow, and at this time, abdominal massage can be carried out to promote intestinal peristalsis, which is conducive to the recovery of intestinal obstruction.
Suffering from intestinal obstruction patients, it is recommended to consult a professional doctor for treatment in a timely manner, do not use their own methods to avoid delaying the condition.
