Edema in the bowels, or intestinal edema, can be caused by several factors, including inflammation, infection, and ischemia (reduced blood supply). Conditions such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), congestive heart failure, and certain infections can lead to increased permeability of blood vessels, allowing fluid to accumulate in the intestinal tissues. Additionally, electrolyte imbalances and kidney dysfunction may contribute to fluid retention and edema.
