I've been having some issues since my C-section delivery about 10 days ago. I've noticed a mild constipation problem, but today was kind of alarming. I had stool twice, and the first one was a bit painful, but the second time, a few hours later, I noticed blood in my stool. My stool still feels pretty hard, and I'm really concerned about what's going on. Any advice on how to fix this?

I'm really worried because I've had HH for the last 10 years and been on medication, specifically nexpre 20 plain, every day and it's been manageable. But for the last 5 or 6 years, I've noticed blood in my stool occasionally which goes away after a few days. This time something else seems to be happeninglike some kind of flesh is coming out and I have no idea what that could be. Can you help me understand what's going on?
