Intussusception

Intussusception is a medical condition where a part of the intestine folds into an adjacent section, causing obstruction. This can lead to severe abdominal pain, vomiting, and swelling. Intussusception is most common in young children and requires urgent medical intervention, often through surgery or air enema, to prevent complications.
