Hi being positive,

Thank you for your question and welcome to Empowher. Colon cleansing has a long history and is an alternative to modern medicines. The theory behind cleaning your colon for centuries was that cleansing out the colon can reduce toxins that get trapped in your bowels. There are different sources that can help achieve that goal which includes:

  • http://css.webmd.com/dtmcms/live/webmd/consumer_assets/site_images/modul...); background-position: 0px 4px; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat;">Laxatives-both stimulant and non stimulant types
  • http://css.webmd.com/dtmcms/live/webmd/consumer_assets/site_images/modul...); background-position: 0px 4px; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat;">Herbal teas
  • http://css.webmd.com/dtmcms/live/webmd/consumer_assets/site_images/modul...); background-position: 0px 4px; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat;">Enzymes
  • http://css.webmd.com/dtmcms/live/webmd/consumer_assets/site_images/modul...); background-position: 0px 4px; background-repeat: no-repeat no-repeat;">Magnesium 

Here is my concern though...I am uncertain as to the reason why this suddenly occurred. Are you on medication after your surgery? Pain medication is often the first culprit of constipation. So since there may be secondary reason why the constipation occurred and if you try to relieve the colon - without proper medical advice, you may just cause another issue or concern. Talk to your treating physician for the best possible solution and a checkup may be necessary. Many of the solutions for constipation can cause severe cramping in the stomach area and I am sure you are not looking for that as a solution. Do yourself a favor and followup with your physician before you make any decision. 

 

Best of luck and keep us posted on what your treating physician tells you.
