Post op: Hello, sometimes after a surgery due to constipation post op, you might have some diarrhea. If you are taking any stool softeners please avoid them. If you are having more than 3 to 4 bowel movements per day, I would recommend getting stool study and checking your stools for infection. If you need detail consultation please contact.
