What Causes Pain In The Lower Abdomen After Surgery For Diverticulitis?
In July I had surgery for diverticulitis. . In the past 3 weeks I have tenderness on the lower left of the abdomen. Pain is mostly when I am active, but not when I sleep. ~Also unable to pass gas and bowel movements are difficult, am taking miralax . When gas is passed, it is very fowl. Cannot see the surgeon for 5 more days. Could this be related to the surgery?
