My kitten had intussusception symptoms, now pooping. Is it still a risk?

Question

Kitten diagnosed possible intussusception (no X-ray or ultrasound) but was throwing up & not passing stools. After anti nausea & fluids just passed stool-healthy well formed (no blood, mucus, etc) perky & seemingly great. With this fabulous poop, would intussusception still be a possibility?

Let's say that intussusception would be very unlikely given clinical improvement. Gastrointestinal infection was more likely i think. Hope this answer was helpful, but please do not hesitate to contact us again on the forum or by requesting a consultation if you have any more questions or to discuss it any further.
