When the bowels shut down, a condition known as bowel obstruction or ileus can occur, leading to a cessation of normal digestive function. This can result in symptoms such as abdominal pain, bloating, constipation, nausea, and vomiting. In severe cases, it may lead to complications like bowel perforation or infection, necessitating immediate medical attention. Treatment often involves addressing the underlying cause, which may include medications, dietary changes, or surgery.
