Back surgery 9 days ago. what are early signs of an ileus. no bm x8days, went from hard rock like stools to bright orange diarrhea all today.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Multiple : Signs of ileus can include nausea, vomiting, abdominal distension, lack of bowel movement, no flats (gas). If you are having bowel movements, you do not have an ileus; but you could be having other GI problems and I would not hesitate to let your doctor know.
