Poop Hips

If obstruction exists then bowel distends – inflates - the way a balloon would. It may even open the clamping area such that the existing back pressure causes flow to follow a pressure gradient rather than the peristalsis direction. As bowel distends more & more the walls thin and the squeezing power gets lost.

Also, without a good fully closed location, any squeeze can go in both directions. With enough distension flow reverses. Laxatives will only hasten disaster. Mechanical obstruction is MECHANICAL. Pills won’t do anything good. The stretching bowel, often not perceived as normal sensory paths are damaged, is sending up a neurologic howl over the more primitive intestinal pathways which spill into central paths and trigger dystonic response. The hips are in the troubled neurologic overflow. So, what is this? . . . . Just 4 dots? ?
