• Pain

  This leads to a very important distinction between chronic pelvic pain and episodes of other pain that we might experience during our life: usually pain is a symptom, but in chronic pelvic pain, pain becomes the disease." [adhesions.org]

  Intestinal adhesions may cause pain due to obstruction during exercise or when stretching. Adhesions involving the vagina or uterus may cause pain during intercourse. Pericardial adhesions may cause chest pain. [webmd.com]

  Sitting up and leaning forward can often ease the pain. At times, it may be difficult to distinguish pericardial pain from the pain that occurs with a heart attack. [mayoclinic.org]

  Nevertheless hypoxia-MSCs (H-MSCs) have more potent in controlling the inflammation than normoxia-MSCs (N-MSCs) by releasing several anti-inflamation particularly IL-10, however the H-MSCs application to inhibit IPAs remain unclear. [oamjms.eu]

  It is proposed that the persistence of fibrin due to decreased tPA activity following surgery or chronic inflammation plays a major role in peritoneal adhesion formation. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]
