Abdominal Adhesions
How to avoid adhesions after a c-section.
Abdominal adhesions occur in 93% of all abdominal surgery. They create strands of scar tissue inside the body that can affect your recovery, pain levels and organ function for years to come. When our tissue is not supported after surgery and bleeding has occurred internally, it does not heal as well. Scar tissue occurs in between organs, and through the fascial system.
These internal adhesions can have a tensile strength of 6000 pounds per square inch. That is some serious pulling power between one part of your body and another, and the pulling effect of these scar tissue adhesions can cause lower back and pelvic problems and pain.
Compression from binding brings the bodily fibres back together at the incision. It helps reduce swelling and prevent the incision tearing. At the same time c-section belly bands offer some protection for the incision, giving you greater confidence holding your baby and moving around.
