Typically I start by taking one, the next day add one of the other so on and so on..by about 5th day I will have movement about every half hour. is it possible my intestine got kinked, twisted during surgery? Or could it be from the antibiotics killing all good bacteria and affects on microbiom? I’ve been taking probiotics.

Answer: 19 months after tummy tuck I’m severely constipated. Could my intestine be kinked, twisted during surgery so stools can’t pass?
