A member asked:
How long would it take for scar tissue from an open appendix removal take to start causing abdomen pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Variable: Scar tissue often never causes pain, so it's impossible to determine the answer to your question. If you're having chronic pain after healing from an open appendectomy, see your surgeon. There may be something that could be causing the pain and that could be treated.
