Intestinal obstruction is a blockage that keeps food or liquid from passing through your small intestine or large intestine (colon).
in a simple description ,if we can say ,imagine the intestine a tube and you come and press on a part of this tube ,if you put water from one side of the tube the water will not pass to the other side but will be forcefully returned backwards to the opening, that what happen in obstruction انسداد
the digestive tract in the intestine or colon ,in your case most probably the intestine ,is closed partially for some reason ,reasons may be inside the tube of intestine or something outside pressing on or the intestine passes from a weak part of your abdominal skin and stuck their ,or the muscles or nerves in intestine are weakened .
have you undergone any surgery in the abdomen

IT is a mechanical cause mostly ,not food not genetic nor any of what you mentioned .
you may have a hernia causing an obstruction that is chronic and by time you will experience more and more serious symptoms .

These are some causes :

Intestinal obstruction may be caused by fibrous bands of tissue in the abdomen (adhesions) which form after surgery, inflamed or infected pouches in your intestine (diverticulitis), hernias and tumors.

Without treatment, the blocked parts of the intestine can die, leading to serious problems. However, with prompt medical care, intestinal obstruction often can be successfully treated.
your blood pressure is low ,and this is related to your condition ,please you must be checked by a doctor don't hesitate you are now better than tomorrow and yesterday better than today concerning an obstruction .
