Most infants treated within the first 24 hours recover completely with no problems. But untreated intussusception can cause serious problems that get worse quickly. So it's important to get help right away — every second counts.
Does intussusception go away by itself?
Sometimes it goes away on its own. In some cases, surgery may be needed. If not treated, intussusception can be life-threatening. Intussusception can happen again, especially if it's not treated with surgery the first time.
How long do intussusception symptoms last?
The main symptom of intussusception is severe, crampy abdominal pain alternating with periods of no pain. Painful episodes may last 10 to 15 minutes or longer, followed by periods of 20 to 30 minutes of no pain, after which the pain returns.
