Lower Stomach pain

Hello Friends :-)

Im hoping some of you post ops can help me! I have serious lower stomach pain, tmi but i was consitpated for a few days, did what the dr told me but i dont think enough came out, im walking like im supposed to but i dont know what else to do, the dr told me to use suppositories to get going then walk, well ive done that and of course the dr is closed today, any ideas????

If your pain is caused by constipation, our doctors recommended stool softeners. I used them for the first 2 years or so.  Nancy

Stool softeners and Miralax, or Milk of Magnesia.  The stomach pains are probably trapped fecal matter and gas;  the sooner you get it out the better you'll feel.

Walking is probably a good thing, too.  Helps to restore the bowel movement necessary to move the material along.

And drink a lot of water, too.

I take a 250 mg stool softener 2-3 times a day and I am 9.5 months out.
