Internal Scar Tissue

Internal scar tissue is scar tissue in the body. You may also hear the internal scar tissue called adhesions only internal or adhesion. Injury is the body's response to injury. When the body was wounded, he tried to fix the injury site as soon as possible. With minor injuries, the body can restore to a previous state network. More generally, the network is replaced with a lower barrier of scar tissue that can not fully replace the lost tissue.

In the body, internal scar tissue forms as a result of trauma. Surgery is a common cause of adhesions, and they also can result from a heart attack, which causes scarring of the heart muscle, along with severe injuries such as torn muscles and joints. Inflammatory disease can also cause internal scarring.

Adhesion is a bond between the two things that previously did not join. For example, an adhesion can cause organs to stick to the wall of the abdominal cavity, or may cause blockage in the intestines. Adhesions often very painful, because they restrict freedom of movement of the organ or organs involved. Adhesions caused by pelvic inflammatory disease, for example, can cause reproductive organs play, causing severe pain and fertility problems.
