IMPROVEMENT:: The intestines naturally twist depending on things like what you eat. This tends to be more common than you would think. Doctors are receiving calls at least once a day about stomach pains which turn out to be twisted intestines. For the most part, the intestines will straighten themselves out within 1-2 hours. However, there is the off-chance that it may be something much more serious. This causes varying blood pressure, intense bowel pains, nausea, dizziness and headaches. SEE YOUR DOCTOR IMMEDIATELY.
