A member asked:
Can an abdo adhesion become worse over time? can it cause back and leg pain? can exertion aggregate it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not worse : The adhesions don't become worse, but they can cause a blockage of the intestines years later. There's nothing to do to prevent it, and it doesn't cause leg or back pain, but some think it can be a cause of abdominal pain. Why they are there for years without a problem, and can suddenly cause a blockage is unknown. Exertion should be unrelated to them as well. Hope this helps!
