A member asked:
I had a colon resection a month and a half ago. lately when i have a bowel movement i get pain in my lower back and abdomen. any ideas?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: You want to let your surgeon know about this. He/she did the resection and must know about it. Better be safe and good luck. Hopefully nothing serious.
