What Should I Do For Loose Stools With White Particles And Pain After Appendectomy?

Please, I had an appendectomy last two months, and I've been healed. But few weeks ago I started having a pain at the spot of my healed wound and I saw part of the stitches thread in my stool. Am having a pain inside as if the inner stitches is loosen inside causing a sore taste in my mouth. My stool is loosen and I noticed some white particles in it. Please what should I do?

Hi. Ifthe appendectomy is done 2 months back, your present problem can be due to Intestinal infection mostly not related to the operation. Threads can not pass like the way you though. It is better to consult your Doctor to get antibiotic cover. Go for light hygienic food and plenty of oral fluids.
