Thanks for contacting healthcare magic.
You have constipation problem after surgery that may be because of lack of activity.
Less water intake and less fiber foods may cause constipation.
You can take stool sofner for constipation.
Consent a gastroenterologist for further diagnosis.
You have pain in anus also. Hemorroid may cause pain around anus. Proper anorectal examination is helpful for diagnose.
I hope my guidance is helpful to you.
Take care.
Thanks.
