Hi,I am Dr. Radhakrishna (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am a paraplegic for 2 years now and have 2 injuries, one starting at level T4 and the other at T10. Both are affecting 3 other levels as wellas the 2 I've listed above such as T11 and more. My abdomen feels like I am wearing a very tight fitting brace or girdle. It started to go away after the first 4 months and then came back but only felt like I had a really tight fitting bra on and now its back full force and making it hard to breath or bend over etc. I haven't been able to have a bowel movement for 5 or 6 days now and I feel very tight in the abdominal muscles today. Could this be a sign of autonomic disreflexia and or a bowel obstruction. Should I be calling an ambulance. I had the first headache in over 2 yrs tonight and I know that that's a sign although it subsided after I took my pain meds. Could you tell me what causes this abdominal pressure and how to make it go away please? I'm sorry, I am on Ontario Disability and live alone and cannot pay for this so thank-you anyway and have a good evening. Cannot afford this and was not aware that answers came with a fee. good-bye.
