What is abdominal adhesion?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Scar: Adhesions are basically scar tissue that forms from previous tissue trauma such as an operation or infection inside the abdominal cavity. It is part of the natural response of healing, and there are variable responses (unpredictable) among patients in terms of the amount and density of the scar tissue. Hope this helps!
