How long does it usually take to cure intestinal obstruction in newborn babies

  How long it takes to cure neonatal intestinal obstruction depends on the specific condition of the child and cannot be generalized. Mild neonatal intestinal obstruction caused by constipation can be relieved with the use of drugs such as corkage, while intestinal obstruction caused by congenital intestinal atresia and other factors require surgical treatment to relieve the problem.  Neonatal intestinal obstruction can be caused by a variety of causes, such as dry stool, intestinal torsion, intestinal overlap and other factors can lead to neonatal intestinal obstruction, manifested as abdominal bulging, no defecation, vomiting, crying and other symptoms. If the child’s condition is mild, it can usually be relieved by active treatment for about 1 week through rehydration and the use of medicines such as open-loop. If the child’s condition is more serious, such as intestinal necrosis, congenital intestinal atresia and other congenital organic diseases that can lead to complete intestinal obstruction, its clinical manifestations are more serious and require timely surgical treatment to restore intestinal patency, then the cure time can be relatively longer.  In addition, because of the weak resistance of newborns, active treatment should be taken promptly when intestinal obstruction occurs to avoid serious dehydration and infection, which may endanger the life of the child.
