Yeah, after lap band surgery, constipation is one of the common side-effect which is faced by most of bender but this is not the normal case as constipation painful and may cause bad impact on surgery and health too. After some time of constipation your stool becomes so hard and dry that you cannot have a proper bowel movement. Constipation case of long time can cause damage of the intestine segment which must be removed and this need a colostomy. If patient try to force for bowel movement can cause unusual high heart rhythms. Some other problems are also related with this problem like rectal prolapsed, shortness of breath and hemorrhoids.

For the lap band surgery patient this may cause the slippage of band from their place and this may cause re-operation. So consult to your doctor as soon as possible.
