Hi..I Had Surgery A Week Ago To Remove An Ovary

Hi..I had surgery a week ago to remove an ovary on left side,have had left sided pain for 2yrs, the doctor discovered during the procedure that I had a lot of scare tissue from previous hysterectomy and that my bowel was twisted, should I be doing anything going forward to prevent this again... It probably has been that way for quit sometime as I have had pain for long time, could there be permanent effects from this? Not sure if it is was the source of my pain as it's only been a week and I don't feel much better. Joanne
