post colostomy reversal surgery discomfort
Posted: 2021-01-18 14:08:16
Main surgery in 06/2019; reversal surgery 12/2019. Had problem with scare tissue obstructing my intestine; so I had surgery on 7/2020 to clear obstruction. Recovery went well until September 2020. I started having weekly painful spasms that lasted about 6 hours even with medication. Had ct scan with contrast in 11/2020 and surgeon found no problems; he said my right side appeared swollen, and prescribed medication. I still get the painful spasms but mostly like every two weeks. Feels like trapped air in the middle section of my stomach mostly behind my navel. I can even hear a gurgling sound. If anyone has has similar symptoms, I would like to know what it is and how to remedy it. I’ve been thinking about going to another specialist. Any info would be greatly appreciated.
