Adhesions begin to form immedeately and yes being too active after a
surgery can help Adhesions to grow faster. Stress also plays a BIG
factor in Adhesion growth rates! Your best off if you take your time and
allow your body to heal properly even though you yourself are feeling
better,,, doesn't mean the Adhesions will be better.
God Bless you and may you feel much better very soon :o)
