Hello,

The possible causes to be checked are:

1. Check for hernia repair site infection or mesh infection
2. Paralytic ileus
3. Acute bacillary dysentery
4. Food intolerance
5. Viral flu et cetera

Get once again examine your hernia repair site, get blood investigation done. Drink soft food, and avoid spicy food and alcohol.

Use tablet Sporulac thrice a day for five days. If symptoms not improved, please consult your doctor, he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
