A member asked:
Bowel resection / ab wall reconstruction / multiple hernia repair about 7 wks ago. normal to still have diarrhea and mild pains around surgery site?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Diarrhea: You have a significant history, but 7 weeks is still long, so I would be safe and get an eval with your doctor as i would have a concern you may have picked up a nosocomial infection like C-Diff causing your diarrhea. Best wishes.
