General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi,

You are constipated because of the pain medication. If you still need the medicines, I suggest you take magnesia and movicol as needed.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Anders Mark Christensen, General Surgeon
