What Causes Constipation And Blood In Stool After Appendix Removal Surgery?
I had my appendix removed Sunday night and it is now Wednesday, prior to having my appendix removed I had not had a bowel movment since the previous Wednesday, so it has now been a week since my bowel movements, and today I finally had a bowel movment, a rock hard and very freshly bloodied bowel movment, should I be concerned?
