Is this adhesion pain??

Hello all, i'm new to this board, and I have a few questions. I had a hysterectomy due to large fibroids 18 months ago. I kept both ovaries. I'm 44 years old. Ever since the surgery, everything has been great up to a month or so ago. About a month ago, I started having a slight pain in my lower pelvic area. It feels like a dull ache. Passing gas helps to ease it (sorry to be so graphic). It's directly in the middle (not on the right or left side). I've also noticed intermittent diarreah too. I thought it might be IBS related so I started eating more fiber and it eased up a little. Then it came right back again a few days later. It's not an overwhelming pain, but I can definitely notice it. It's not always there, but it seems to come at the end of the day.

I have recently started using castor oil packs because i've heard that it helps for any pelvic or bowel problems.

Does this pain sound like adhesions??? Thanks in advance!!
