Please go to the same hospital where you were hospitalized. Ask the Doctor there if you need an enema. Once your bowels have been emptied, after that you can start a mild laxative.

You are suffering from constipation after a major surgery.
It is advisable to take laxatives and a diet rich in fibers.
Avoid meat products.
