What Causes Diarrhea After A Hip Surgery Despite Taking Probiotic?
I have read your answer about the need of probiotic after surgery because so many antibiotics are introduced during surgery. How long does it take to regain normal flora? I am using probiotics, eating bananas, hydration and fiber. I think that the family doctor is unconcerned that after a month I still have diarrhea while the hip surgeon wants me to get help from my famly dr. and get better. This type of conflict does not help the patient. How long Dr.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if the disturbances of flora is main concern then it is the pathophysiological phenomenon and not the pure form of disease it gets repaired it self even if no medicines taken for this so just be patient and have balance diet you would get something in diet which repairs the flora hope this information helps.
