do adhesion prevent muscle flexibility

I had a thoracotomy 2 and 1/2 yrs ago. I am now finding that in the area surrounding the cut, there is an increase in the amount of tightness and pressure. Can this be attributed to internal adhesions which formed following the healing after surgery? Does anyone know if adhesions, which may be formed beneath the external scar, prevent flexiblity to the nearest muscle group? Please email response. Thank you.
