I had two Inguinal hernias repaired about 12 days ago and have been battling constipation since. I ve been taking an off the self stool softener to try and help. After a misunderstanding over my Percocet prescription I took 1 5/325 every two hours over the period of about 4 days right after the surgery causing insomnia and even worse constipation. I ve cut my usage of all pain killers outside of ibuprofen 200mg tablets x3 once or twice a day for a few days. Getting to my concern I just had a bowel movement that was bright red. I ve been returning to a sort of normal movement routine over the last few days and none of them had any blood in them. My follow up appointment with the surgeon is in two days. Should I wait to see if it happens again and talk to him on tuesday or should I seek medical attention sooner?
