I cannot pass gas...HELP

Whitney

2.5 days after c-section. I literally cannot pass gas. I feel it all bubbled up inside of me and it shoots down to come out, but then gets stuck at my rectum and won’t come out no matter how hard I try to force it. Also, my anus feels extremely firm and tight. Not sure if it’s from pain or a complication of surgery.
