Reoccurring Bowel Obstructions due to adhesions

I have had four bowl reactions and am just now experiencing obstructions. I have had tow episodes in the last six months.

I have heard in several places that there are certain yoga positions that are helpful. I am waiting to join a class to see if it is helpful. I would also suggest a low residue diet and small portion size at meal time. Sean’s to help.

I appreciate you posting again, @tennisfan. If you read through some of the posts in this discussion group, you will see that many have used abdominal massages to help. There is a post by @thull which describes some of the massage techniques that she has used. Here is a link to her post, https://connect.mayoclinic.org/comment/334661/. @thull has had several surgeries of the sigmoid colon and she knows a lot about adhesions. I hope that she will join you in discussing her experiences with you.

If you have any concerns, you might talk with your doctor first. Have you tried abdominal massage?
