To the best of my knowledge about adhesions, there is nothing that you can do. Adhesions are the way our body heals itself following an infection ( like pelvic inflammatory disease ), following a trauma like surgery, or in response to peritonitis ( following your burst appendix ). This is a natural response.

I am 9 days post surgery for removing abdominal adhsions which caused a complete gut obstruction after 37 yrs of misery and pain.

My appendix burst 37 yrs. ago.

Is there anything that I can now do to prevent further adhesion formation?
