Bowel problem with gallbladder surgery
I had gallbladder surgery two months ago. There is no problem otherwise but I have not gone to the pass stool since yesterday morning and I still don't feel like going. Although it feels like my stomach is full, is this normal?

After gallbladder surgery, the digestive system takes time to adjust and constipation or a bloated feeling for a couple of days is quite common. Make sure you are drinking enough water, eating fiber-rich foods, and taking short walks to stimulate gut movement. If you do not pass stools for more than 2-3 days or experience significant abdominal pain, do check with your surgeon.

Constipation occurring 2 months post gall bladder surgery is unrelated to surgery. For one day constipation, just take a glassful hot water, before sleeping, take high fiber diet. If it relapses, take syp lactulose 5m.l every evening after dinner.

2 months after gallbladder surgery, the constipation is probably not related to it.
You can take high fiber diet, plenty of oral liquids and that should work for your constipation, if not, then take syp looz 30 ml once, that will relieve your symptoms
