Hi, there is no relation with your operation of spine, it might be due to the medicines you are using for the convalescence. If any gastric irritants are there if you avoid them you can get relief from it.
I to my patient with such symptoms prescribe ofloxacin, ranitidine 300mg, and if still no relief, i give him loperamide when ever there is frequency. thank you.
