@ajica I had the same for a while. You think you need to go but, you do not. You feel the pressure but, it is not ready yet. I would get scared and think it was stuck.
It will go away. I would suggest a potty squatty. It will help tremendously. Never "sit there" and never "strain"
Also, even though it is the morning. When you get up drink a full glass of liquid and just walk around. It will help move it!
With surgery everything moves around, and it is like a reposition. I also, did tummy massage.

Muchas gracias por el comentario! Yo tambien uso el banquito para ir al banio, sin eso me resulta imposible. A la maniana tomo magnesio, agua tibia con limon y camino + hago ejercicios de taichi para el intestino. Luego tomo el desayuno. Consultando en chat gpt me comentaba de hacer fisioterapia del suelo pelvico. Por el momento esperare a ver como evoluciono.
Podria preguntarle cuanto tiempo tardo en recuperarse 100%?

@linda82 Interested in the "tummy massage" you mention. Did you do a self massage (not usually effective for me), or did you see a therapist for visceral massage. I am interested in massage that might help with adhesions. thanks!
