Post Op 2 Months Constipation With Red Nlood

[dadsangel 2]

Hi all. In a little concerned. Yesterday and today I've had bouts of Constipation and both times when I finally passed a rather dry and medium bulky stool, there have been some clots of red, mucousy blood. Both times I've had to really push hard for almost an hour to pass the stool. Is this moal or should I be concerned?

you need a laxative for sure and you need to get with your doctor, even if there was blood could be you tore humm your hole a bit. but being with mucus and clot, i would get with a doctor soon and get some prepartion H, but seriously Fiber is your friend forever

Definitely better to ask than not. Red blood indicates fresh blood so probably from all the straining. Blood higher in the tract would be dark or black. A stool softener daily to keep it soft and a laxative as needed to help move things along is a good idea. Of course hydration is important too. You should be fine but if it continues call your doctor.

After you check with your doctor you may want to start drinking a herbal tea called Smooth Move. I drink it about every other evening. It really helps.
