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 dealing with this chronic pain under my left rib cage, and it seems to act up mostly when I sleep on my left side. The pain isn't unbearable, but it's happening quite frequently. I also feel like the area beneath my left and right rib cages don't feel the sameis this normal? I remember getting hit by a cricket ball there as a kid. Could that have something to do with it? What might be going on?
The chronic pain under your left rib cage, exacerbated by sleeping on your left side, could be related to a possible rib injury or fracture from the childhood cricket ball incident, leading to conditions like costochondritis, intercostal neuralgia, or rib tip syndrome; consult orthopaedician
