General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

I read carefully your query and understand your concern.

Irregular bowel movements are normal after a surgery.

I suggest to use daily probiotics and eat a healthy diet.

I also suggest to drink liquids and try daily walking.

Hope my answer was helpful.

If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.

Kind regards!
