Brief Answer:
No intervention needed

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on Health care magic.

You seem to have adhesions between your bladder diverticulum and bowel. Usually a bladder diverticulum is left as it is unless it is causing specific problems. Even though you have adhesions, unless the size of the diverticulum is more than 4 cu.mm, and unless it is bothering you too much, just leave it alone.
