Painful bowel movement after lumbar disc herniation surgery is considered to be caused by factors such as low activity level and unreasonable diet after surgery; or complications caused by nerve compression after surgery, which can be relieved by general treatment and medication according to the cause of the disease.
1. Low activity level after surgery: Low activity level after surgery slows down intestinal peristalsis, and after the stool becomes dry, there will be obvious pain during defecation. It is recommended to increase the amount of activity and accelerate the peristalsis by rubbing the abdomen, and take Domperidone tablets orally if necessary.
2. Unreasonable diet: If you eat high-fat and high-calorie food for a long time after the surgery for lumbar disc herniation, it may affect your bowel movement and lead to painful bowel movement. At present, you should make some improvements in diet, try to be more soft, light and easy to digest.
3. Nerve compression: If the lumbar disc herniation nerve compression is not lifted, it is easy to affect defecation. If the symptom is serious, you can use corkscrew and observe regularly to know the recovery situation; if there is nerve entrapment, traction treatment can be carried out after the operation.
If the patient has undergone surgery for herniated lumbar disc, it is recommended that he or she be hospitalized initially for observation, and be discharged from the hospital after full recovery, with regular follow-ups. The above medications should be used according to the doctor’s prescription.
