Intestinal Obstruction :: A case of intestinal obstruction – Acalypha Indica
Mrs. Kalawati, around 58 years old, was brought to me by her daughter on 18-01-05 in great distress with a severely distended abdomen. She had not passed stool since about a week and on asking also said that she had not passed any gas since few days though she had tried all sorts of churans for it. She had a constant feeling of rumbling in abdomen and had no appetite or thirst. If she were fed forcefully she would throw up. I suspected intestinal obstruction from the presentation.
