Today, I'm recovering from colon surgery. They gave me codeine as pain relief, which has made me constipated. I'm currently sat on the toilet, trying to push out what feels like a small child wrapped in barbed wire out without busting my stitches. FML

+1 for describing it as "small child wrapped in barbed wire". I think that really adds to the imagery

Maybe you should ask for an alternate medicine if they offer it.

hint from a nursewhen my mom had the same problem: if you feel constipated even if you're already on the toilet, just pull up your pants and find the longest hallway or space and walk as quickly as you can for at least 5 minutes.

Unfortunately I know exactly how you feel OP, been there done that and it is not something I ever want to revisit

Just trying to imagine that made me cringe.
