I have not used the bathroom in almost 2 weeks. It is very uncomfortable. If I take anything I Hurt like no other. This is killing me. I can't hardly exercise or anything.

Two weeks is too long. Have you called your dr? If not you should.

I agree with Jen... two weeks is way too long. I hope you get to "going" soon!!

Hi I need some help I had surgery on Monday and I've been doing good until today I woke up with more pain than usual around the 2nd incision on my left side. The staples look fine and there's no oozing but right above is a knot that is pretty tender!! I live 2hrs away frm the hospital should I get it checked or is this normal??

Absolutely normal for about 2-3 weeks after surgery. Just take your pain meds, it will help.

Anytime you ask yourself "should I ask the Dr or Nurse " then you should. Always go with you feeling and get a professional opinion. That is why you have a Dr.

I would think as long as its not oozing or hot you should be ok. But it wouldn't hurt to call the doctor and see what he says. That's what they're getting paid for.

I got antibiotics more pain meds and seeing my surgeon in the morning where they are more than likely going to drain it!! Ouch :(
