What is Appendicitis?
Appendicitis is an inflammation of the appendix, a pouch-shaped organ connected to the large
intestine.
If you don't get treatment for it, the appendix can rupture, which is a life-threatening situation.
Always seek immediate medical attention if you think you have appendicitis.
Your appendix is on the lower right-hand side of your abdomen, but pain from appendicitis
may start in the middle of your abdomen.
Treatment for appendicitis involves surgery to remove the appendix.
After surgery, most people recover quickly and without complications.
Symptoms of appendicitis.
1.
Abdominal pain.
This pain is also often described by patients as sharp pain that's located near the navel
and moves to the lower right abdomen and intensifies very quickly.
This pain often worsens with jarring (i.e. coughing) or movement.
Medical professionals usually diagnose appendicitis by placing hands on the patients belly.
2.
Low fever.
Appendicitis can also cause a flu-like, low grade fever that can reach between 99-102
degrees Fahrenheit.
The fever is often accompanied by chills, clammy skin, nausea, and stomach pain so severe
that you can't stand upright.
3.
Nausea and vomiting.
With gradually increasing abdominal pain, appendicitis often causing mild nausea with
vomiting sometimes close behind, very similar to a stomach bug.
4.
Loss of appetite.
Loss of appetite will often accompany discomfort from gas, bloating, and abdominal swelling.
After all, who wants to chow down when they're experiencing abdominal pain, right?
However, if you're also experiencing mild diarrhea containing mucus, along with pain,
bloating, gas, and nausea, you may be experiencing appendicitis symptoms.
5.
Constipation and diarrhea.
Like many of the other symptoms, these may not be severe and probably will come on after
you've already experienced abdominal pain.
But if you have mild diarrhea, especially if there is a lot of mucus in it, in addition
to lower right abdominal pain, see your doctor.
6.
Difficulty passing gas.
Appendicitis often causes unexplained abdominal boat as well as difficulty passing gas, which
can cause a painful and severely swollen abdomen.
