I had extremely major surgery on my right lung in February. I have been
improving and am back to work, but the pain level I am experiencing
constantly has stayed about the same for the past three months. Physical
activity of any kind worsens it. After seeing my doctor Fri. he
mentioned that I might have adhesions, I am scheduled to begin physical
therapy, mainly to improve my shoulder, but I think the problem is
actually in my right ribcage. Is there the possibility that stretching
during therapy might further damage tissue or any organs? I am counting
on it being very painful, so I am prepared for that, but I would hate to
think that I could do further damage and have to undergo surgery again.
Is there any kind of medication that will dissolve these and how do you
find out for sure you have them? I do have a past history of scar tissue
around my female organs, but no current problems in that area. I hope
someone can help. Thanks.
