Adhensions of Intestine

by sanjay, Jun 04, 2001 12:00AM
My mother (age 59 yr.)was operated on 25 May 2001 for following:
- Gall Blader stone
- Hornea
During the surgery operation gall balder with stone was removed. However Surgeon noticed that part of intenstine was having white spots & was damaged. The 6-7 inches of the damaged intestine was removed and hornea was repaired.
After 72 hrs after operation Oral food was given to her, but she vomitted out all in late evening. Same phenomena has been repeated for last 2-3 days. The colour of vomitted matl was greenish thick liquid mass.
Presently, she is now not able to pass solid stool. She is not feeling hungry at all and there is sbsolutely no pain on any part of abdomen.
Concerned Surgeon has told that since the intestines are long tubes and have property of adhensions among self, which is very much severe in her case. This ADHENSION OF INTESTINE is not allowing to pass food matl from abdomen thro intestine. Which in surgeon opinion is resulting into vomitting & no oral feed. As per him there is no cure of this  adhesion and it can't be said how much time will it take to be rectified.

PLEASE HELP. REQUESTED TO PLEASE SEND ME IMMEDIATELY REMEDIAL MEASURES AS MY MOTHER IS STILL HOSPITALISED.
