Had A Left Inguinal Hernia Repaired 2 Weeks Ago. No

Had a left inguinal hernia repaired 2 weeks ago.
No pain or discomfort now bu about 3 days ago
began passing dark stools. No constipation of
pain, just dark stools. Eating fairly normally, good
activity, not straining or lifting anything heavy.

Should I take a laxative? Maybe I am seeing old
bowel matter finally passing? Opinion?
