What can I do to make myself feel better?

My name is Debbie and I am 59 years old. About 13 days ago I had a colon resection with no bag. I am slightly bleeding from the c-section site. The color is reddish/yellow. I am getting an increase in cramping to lower abdomen and lower backache. My surgeon said I dont have an infection and the site looks good but every time I roll over I get saturated from incision site. Do I have a problem or is this all part of healing? He prescibd 800 motrin but now put me on tramadol which I dont like.

You need a CT scan of abdomen and pelvis. Consult Functional Medicine and Pain management.
