Had An Appendecectomy. Developed A Hematoma. Medical Cure For This?

I had an appendecectomy 5 weeks ago. Turned out everything was normal with appendix but they went ahead and took it out anyways. A week later I developed a hematoma that they surgically removed. Now 4 weeks on after second surgery I developed really bad diahorrea 3 days ago that lasted 24 hrs and ever since have severe cramps going around abdomen into back. Almost like having co reactions when in labour. Extremely painful. I am passing has very frequently but no relief to cramps. Was wondering if this would be related to surgery. Saw surgeon 1 week ago for follow up who said that I still had a lump in left side if belly button but to watch and wait.....

Hi welcome to Health care magic forum.
Thanks for choosing H.C.M.Forum.
You had appendicectomy 5 weeks ago, one week latter you developed a hematoma, and doctors removed surgically, four weeks after second surgery, you developed very bad diahorrea,3days ago, lasted for 24 hours. since then you had cramps of abdomen and back.Your surgeon said there is a lump in the abdomen.
Most probably the pains may not have any relation with the surgeries, as they have succeeded the diahorrea , it might be due to remnant infection of the intestines.
I advise you to consult your doctor and explain about your diahorrhea. Yo may need to use anti biotics, anti spasmodics, protiolytics for resolving the lump, etc for the present.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery.
Best wishes.
