A member asked:
Feeling lots of pain in lower left side of stomach months after colostomy pull-through surgery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends : On quality and character of pain. I suspect this was for diverticulitis perforation with colostomy and then takedown? You could have same thing happen again if the pain is constant, sharp and steady esp with fever or chills. Other possibility would be constipation or adhesion. Need to call ur medical doctor.
