Can you still get adhesions if you’re on medication to prevent them?

Bowel adhesion may still occur after using the medicine to prevent bowel adhesion. After abdominal surgery, it is easy to have intestinal adhesion, which belongs to the common postoperative complications, and is related to surgical stimulation, foreign body stimulation, surgical trauma, bleeding, inflammation and so on. Generally, after abdominal surgery, the doctor will guide the application of drugs to prevent intestinal adhesion, to reduce the possibility of intestinal adhesion, but can not completely avoid intestinal adhesion. Therefore, intestinal adhesion may still occur. Therefore, although the medication used to prevent adhesions can prevent adhesions, it does not mean that adhesions will not occur 100% of the time. After abdominal surgery, it is recommended to follow the doctor’s instructions strictly, eat easy-to-digest food, and have small and frequent meals, so as to avoid adding pressure to the stomach and intestines. At the same time, it is also necessary to get out of bed appropriately to promote intestinal peristalsis and try to prevent intestinal adhesions. If intestinal adhesion occurs, complications such as intestinal obstruction will occur and require surgical treatment.
