Appendix Surgery: Appendicitis symptoms and what to expect from Appendectomy
Appendectomy is the surgical removal of the appendix. It is a common emergency surgery to treat Appendicitis, which is an inflammatory condition of the appendix.
Appendicitis occurs when the appendix becomes blocked. The blockage causes infection, and the appendix swells. When the disease continues without treatment, the appendix can pierce and transport bacteria to the abdominal cavity. This condition can have complications and may require emergency surgery. Symptoms of Appendicitis may include:
Sudden pain in the lower right part of the abdomen
Pain near the navel that moves downward
Pain that gets worse if you cough or walk.
Nausea and vomiting begin shortly after abdominal pain.
Loss of appetite
99-102 degree fever
Constipation or diarrhea
Abdominal distension
Flatulence
If Appendicitis is not diagnosed and treated promptly, it can evolve and complicate to generate peritonitis, a condition that may be of greater risk to the patient's life.
