Abdominal bloating is common after all abdominal surgeries.
It can last up to several weeks after the intervention and increases when narcotics for pain relief are used.
If you suffer from constipation, this adds to the feeling of bloated abdomen.
Try to drink plenty of fluids and eat small meals.
For bloating, you may try to chew simethicone tablets with meals.
For constipation, use stool softener.


Best wishes!
