English term or phrase: stretch within the bowel.

The full paragraph goes like this:

The pathophysiology of IBS-C is still unclear, but we know that symptoms may occur due to a number of changes in gut motility, often associated with hypersensitivity to contractions or stretch within the bowel.

Could stretch in this case be translated with "Spannung"?
