Codeine often works to backup the bowel and cause blockage.

Is it possible for a patient with traumatic brain injury to recover 100%?

There is some correlation between Crohn's disease and genetic but so far there is no definitive answer.

Which components of food regulate your bowel movement?
The fibre (roughage) content of food, whilst essentially non-nutritive, is very important. The fibre content absorbs moisture, thus making the food more uniform in texture, and easier to digest. Further, one of the important function of your bowel is to recover water from the feces, such that this important material is not squandered. The presence of fibre makes this water easier to extract. [If your bowel is damaged by disease, this water extraction process is often interfered with, producing the unpleasant liquid motions.]
Bowel sounds that sound like inside of tin can?
Bowel sounds that sound like the inside of a tin can, often described as "tinkling" sounds, may indicate increased peristalsis and bowel hyperactivity.

Bowel book have to be completed every shift?
Some patients at the hospital, nursing home, or even receiving home care need records kept for intake/output, for bowel movements, or other problems or treatments. A "bowel record" would include time of the bowel movement, approximate size (example: large BM), consistency (formed stool or diarrhea), color, and any abnormal findings (example: blood-streaked). The record should be kept by family or caregiver. Aides/nursing assistants often make most entries because they assist the patient with bathroom activities.
