Hi honey, have just looked at the post operative care guidelines,it says…..
If you notice that you are constipated,(this may be due to the painkiller you have taken)a mild laxative will help if eating cereals,fresh fruit,vegetables,drinking warm drinks and gentle mobilising does not.we recommend that you have a mild laxative in your home for this reason. Lactulose or any over the counter preparation available in your local pharmacy will help. The pharmacist will always be able to advise you.
Have you tried a hot water bottle on your tummy,that may ease it.Or hot milk with treacle or honey in.xxx
