How To Treat Disturbing Bowel Movement After Vaginal Hysterectomy?

default
Posted on Sun, 29 Dec 2013
Question: i just had a vaginal hysterectomy 2 weeks ago and I am having issues with having a bowel movement. At first, my bowel movements were very loose. But a week after I got out of the hospital, I started having issues with my bowels. I simply cannot make a decent bowel movement even when I have an urgency to go. What could possibly be wrong?
