Intermittent abdominal cramping associated with abdominal swelling, nausea and vomiting can be indicative of an intestinal obstruction. A blockage of the colon can be caused by a variety of conditions including adhesions or scar tissue that forms after surgery, ingested materials or tumors. A partial or complete intestinal obstruction prevents intestinal contents to pass through. Untreated, it can lead to electrolyte imbalances, infection and perforation of the intestine.
