General Surgeon 's  Response
Tiffa scan shows distended bowel as there are gases into it.
Gases in the bowel are seen in the normal person and there is nothing serious about it. This is not a problem unless you have symptoms like bloating , pain relate to it.
Due to pregnancy, the Doctor does not prepare your with the charcoal and laxative tablets.
