Is It Normal To Have Sharp Pain In Lower Abdomen After Surgery For Intestinal Blockage?

approx 4 yrs ago i had an intestinal blockage that required surgery where they removed part of my intestines and my apendix. i'm usually constipated unless I take something for it and i'm experiencing alot of sharp pain in my lower abdomin. i had an ultrasound by my gyno and he said to check with an internist. does it sound like blockage problems again?

Hi. This does not sound like a blockage again unless you have associated symptoms of ::: distension of abdomen, nausea, vomiting. To assure the diagnosis , I would advise to go for radiological contrast studies for the intestines. This will give a perfect idea. Pain can be due to infection of intestines , may be a ureteric stone n the same side Ultrasonography must have ruled this out).
