tummy ache any suggestions

Can any of u tell me what you do for tummy aches. My stomach has been hurting all day. I feel like I need to poop but can't. I am really uncomfortable. Please advise for quick relief!!!!

Something warm, like tea or broth??? My surgeon wants me to drink prune juice (yuk) if I'm constipated... Paula

Same here, my surgeon said either watered down prune juice or Milk of Magnesia per directions on the bottle. Beth

Tea always helps me... I love love love peppermint tea and it's great for digestion! Feel better soon!! ~Nim

I've always had this problem, and it hasn't changed after surgery. What HAS changed is that my bariatric surgeon will not let me take laxatives because they could rupture the staple lines. What they will let me take is Benefiber and Dulcolax supositories or a Fleet enema. Thus far, the supositories every 2 or 3 days are working well. Good luck.

My doctor suggested fleet enema...I'm glad I still haven't had to use it..
