Best Answer

These "diseases" are referred to as motility disorders. A motility disorder of the small intestine can lead to a few symptoms like:

  • Pain
  • Nausea
  • Bloating
  • Constipation or diarrhea
  • Vomiting

Severity and frequency can range from person to person, and, luckily, there is usually a grace period where the person is free of symptoms.
