My surgeon recommended a stool softener. Colace works well!

i was told to try a stool softner first and if after 24 hours that didn't work to do a laxative.

I was told to try Fiber products such as Benefiber as this may be an ongoing issue since we don't really eat a lot. But see what your doc allows first.
