Answers:
Have you been drinking plenty of fluids, I mean good old water!?!? After surgery our body's go through a type of mini shock!. The gut slows down and coupled with pain killers (which are constipating) it practically quits working!. Use the laxative religiously until you're going to the bathroom regularly everyday and up your fluid intake!. For immediate relief you can try a glycerine suppository or even the liquid glycerine by Fleet, which works very very well!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
