Post op complication: If you are having pain, not having any bowel movement and you are sick please get to the closest emergency room if you can. Call 911 if you must. If you are hesitant please page the surgeon on call for your surgeon to make sure that someone can give you exact advice today.

Get to a doctor: It sounds like your intestines may have become stuck in the hernia and you have developed a blockage. I would go to the nearest emergency room as soon as possible and be evaluated by a physician as hernia complications may require emergency surgery.
