Any inflammation and/or excessive smooth-muscle contractions occurring within the gastrointestinal system can be quite discomforting and painful. In fact, in severe cases of viral enteritis, intestinal obstructions, and intussusceptions, this pain can be so great that the patient goes into life threatening shock. As a result, the sooner therapeutic measures are undertaken to correct the problem and stifle the pain associated with it, the less chance of complications occurring.
