The lack of movement of intestine and the failure of relaxation of internal anal sphincter produces varying degree of intestinal obstruction, which results in symptoms like- constipation, abdominal distension, nausea and loss of appetite etc. In allopathic medical science the treatment is surgical removal of the affected area followed by anastomosis.
