These important chemicals flow into the small intestine to help with digestion. The flow of these chemicals is controlled by a muscle called the sphincter of Oddi. A sphincter is a muscle (usually round) that can open and close. When it's working properly, the sphincter of Oddi opens to allow bile and pancreatic juice to flow through, and then closes again. However, in a condition called sphincter of Oddi dysfunction, the sphincter muscle does not open when it should.
