Yes: Yes, but one must rule out other causes of similar pain including celiac disease and even inflammatory bowel disease. Talk to a gastroenterologist.

IBS: Usually not . If your surgery was very recent it may be a part of the healing from surgery. You should consult with your surgeon or any other md to get evaluated
