Adhesions are very hard to diagnose as the cause of a problem. Everything else has to be ruled out. Treating them is also problematic. If they are troublesome enough then surgery can be performed to cut (“lyse”) them, but 1) it can be hard to find the one(s) causing the problem, and 2) each surgery causes more adhesions. So it’s usually treated as a last resort.

Most adhesions cause little or no trouble. Some people have gotten their lives back from adhesion surgery, but you have to undertake it with limited expectations.
