SLIGHT BLOCKAGE, PLEASE HELP

Have decided I must stay home, going to the bathroom with just small pieces, trying to contact my doctor, still distention, but pain not horrible, any more suggestions? I am broken hearted I cannot be with my family.

Drink alot of water and use a heating pad. that what helps my hubster. :-)

Lablover- Thank you so much.

You are welcome.  Hopefully, it will work itself out.

I have had a lot of these partial blockages over the years, if that is what it is. I say that because with me there is always cramping and sometimes nausea. The body sometimes just slows down, some bugs cause this or it just happens. But for me without cramping I just ignore and go about my life. A high fiber waffle would not be a food issue for me, but everyone is different.

But my basic method to clear a partial is to not eat anything, drink a lot of water, purple grape juice is good, red wine also. Stop the lomatil it works against you clearing the blockage and may have helped cause it. Move around, do yoga that sort of thing generally be active  There usually is a flush of watery stool after the blockage is cleared then things get back to normal over a period of hours or days depending on how bad the blockage.  Good luck. To avoid problems in future chew food really well and drink lots when you eat.

I am feeling a little better, some stool has been coming out, so I think I am going to be okay. Just wonder how long it takes for complete pain and distention to stop.

Thank you so much for your response, God Bless

Just wonder if anyone can answer this. A few hours ago I passed maybe 10 maybe  1 inch blocks of stool, not a big amount, now just getting brownish water, still have distention and some pain, just wondered if this means the blockage is over? Never threw up or got nausea.  Please help if you might know the answer, still on fluids.

Hey Mikee,

Just wondering how you are? I didn't see this till today, I hope you are better.  I used to get a lot of obstructions and was hospitalized several times.  When I feel one starting up and I haven't pooped in awhile and start getting pain, I use a vibrator on the spot that hurts.  It really works!  Also, drink grape juice, walk and lots of water.  Avoid beans, nuts, seeds.  Best of luck,

K

Thanks so much, for one day I had only liquids and next day very light diet but still having little out put but pain and distention gone. Must stay on light diet for a few days, just wish I had more output.
