Suggest Cure For Sickness In The Stomach
I had recent been sick with either food poisoning or the stomach flu. During that time I had also dealt with being constipated and now that I am over it and just began to eat full meals. I have not felt that I needed to poop in about a day and a half now. I am wondering if this is normal.

Hi,
Abdominal infection may cause such symptoms but it may not long last. As soon as the infection vanished symptoms also disappear and if this is not so then it can be due to some diet or dyspepsia.
So try to change the diet first and confirm the infection. Take the full tests to identify the causative of abdomen infection and discuss the matter with your physician. If no infection is there then it is normal, but the change in the diet is advisable.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
