I had a hysterectomy, the only abdominal surgery I've ever had. Since then I have constant pain in my lower left quadrant. I have a bowel movement, and then it feels sore and dilated and gassy all day. The more food I eat, the worse it feels. I was wondering what foods might effect adhesions. I think it would be bad to eat things like peanut butter and others that are kind of sticky. Would oils kind of smooth things out? Like olive oil? I'm so sick of this constant pain. I went to a pain management clinic, but all he did was rub my stomach really gently. They didn't have much else to offer. What other kinds of things can pain management clinics do?
