Internal scar tissue is formed as a result of some surgical procedures, such as hartmannâs procedure, injury, inflammation or infection. The medical term for internal scarring is âadhesionâ. It is different from external scar tissue in the way that it forms. As it can cause tethers or a biological barrier, and result in pain and complications. It is caused by your bodyâs own healing process.
Virtually everyone develops internal scar tissue, or adhesions, throughout life. Adhesions can form anywhere in the body as the first step in the healing process after an infection, inflammation, surgery or trauma.
