Generally speaking, patients in good physical condition can have bowel movement 2 to 3 days after general anesthesia surgery, but it is not generalized, and it is related to the type of surgery as well as individual’s physical condition. Patients in general anesthesia surgery will be affected by the stomach, peristalsis is not as good as the original, but in the process of recovery of the peristalsis of the stomach will slowly recover, in about 2 to 3 days after the peristalsis of the stomach can be restored, and then you can resume the bowel movement. However, it is important to note that you should not use too much force when having a bowel movement. If it is not easy to pass stools or if you cannot pass stools, please seek help from a doctor or nurse, and do not use force to pass stools on your own, as this may cause the wound to split open. For patients who are not in good health, it is generally not recommended to defecate on your own, and you should resume defecation only after you have fully recovered and with your doctor’s consent. In addition, if there is any physical discomfort, please treat it promptly.
