Patient's question:
I had surgery for uterine fibroids a year ago. Recently, I've been feeling like there's gas in my stomach that won't come out, constipation, and sometimes my wound also hurts, along with stomach pain. Could it be adhesions or intestinal obstruction? Is my condition indicative of intestinal obstruction?Doctor's answer:
Hello, intestinal adhesion is mostly caused by inflammation, and you can take some anti-inflammatory drugs to delay its continued adhesion. To relieve pain, you can use painkillers such as morphine or pethidine. However, this only treats the symptoms, not the root cause. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for surgical treatment to resolve the adhesion.
