Summary

Adhesions are permanent tissue connections that are created by fibrin deposition between different tissue planes or organs. They are a part of the internal healing process and inflammatory reactions that go through several overlapping phases, including the proliferative phase, remodeling phase, and hemostasis/inflammatory phase. Adhesions are typically the body's defense mechanisms against various triggers of inflammation, including physical, chemical, and infections. These triggers can have unfavorable consequences, including chronic pain, obstruction (particularly bowel), functional impairment, and infertility. This may cause adjacent structures to lose their flexibility and mobility. The nonsurgical treatment of symptoms thought to be associated with adhesions has centered on several methods of soft tissue scar removal.

Conditions

  • Pelvic Adhesions
  • Post Hysterectomy Pain

Interventions

OTHER

soft tissue mobilization with pelvic floor muscle exercises

Group A will receive soft tissue mobilization and pelvic floor muscle exercises. Soft tissue mobilization technique will include abdominal myofascial release/trigger point release and deep scar mobilization to decrease pain and improve scar mobility

OTHER

soft tissue mobilization without pelvic floor muscle exercises

Group B will receive soft tissue mobilization technique without pelvic floor exercises.
