Doctor thinks i habe adhesions causing extreme pain and wants me to see a surgeon don't they always grow back?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Be seen: If you are having extreme pain, I would certainly be seen and discuss with a specialist. Adhesions can cause severe and life threatening problems; and while they can potentially grow back, they don't always grow back to the extent they cause recurrent problems.
