A doctor has provided 1 answer

See GI: It's quite common to have constipation after surgery. Milder laxatives such as Lactulose or Miralax are preferred.Its possible You developed impaction due to hard stools, due to inactivity and lack of hydration post surgery. Due to presence of blood, even though etiology seem obvious, you should get examined , Have R/E and Sigmoid/Colonoscopy to r/o more serious Dx. Drink a plenty of fluids.
