Appendicitis is a very common surgical problem. Appendicitis first causes pain around the navel. Then the pain moves to the right side of the lower abdomen. Pain may be accompanied by mild fever, nausea may also occur. These are the common symptoms of appendicitis.
Apart from this, there can be pain on the right side of the lower abdomen due to various reasons. For example, if one has stones in the right artery or urinary tract, there may be a pain. Apart from this, if someone suddenly has gastroenteritis i.e. upset stomach, lower abdominal pain may also occur.
In women, ectopic pregnancy, i.e. if the pregnancy occurs in a fallopian tube instead of the uterus, especially in the right fallopian tube, can also cause sudden pain in the lower abdomen. If someone has pain in the right ovary, pain in the lower abdomen may also occur. So it is not like appendicitis if there is pain on the right side.
Appendicitis can be of different types, some can be acute appendicitis. Some people experience recurrent appendicitis, which is called recurrent appendicitis. If someone has appendicitis and is in good physical condition, does not have diabetes, is not pregnant, or has a physical weakness, in many cases it is possible to cure appendicitis with medicine.
But in the case of appendicitis, if not operated on on time, appendicitis can lead to an abscess or appendicular lump. Or it could be a breast appendix. For that, if the type of appendicitis can be diagnosed by various tests, it is possible to cure the patient by quick operation. Because if the operation is not performed at the right time, various complications may occur.
In many cases, pain in the lower right side of the abdomen is called appendicitis. However, pain in the lower right side of the abdomen does not mean appendicitis. Abdominal pain can be caused by various reasons. For example stones in women’s urinary bladder, ectopic pregnancy, urinary problems or infection, pelvic inflammatory disease or infection of the uterus, fallopian tubes, and other reproductive organs, etc. In case of such a problem, the diagnosis must be made with the advice of a doctor. If the doctor advises the operation then the operation should be done as soon as possible. Otherwise, various complications may arise.
Today, surgery on the appendix can be done very easily. Surgery can be done laparoscopically. It can be done by making a few holes. The advantage of this is that whether the patient has appendicitis or not, it can be 100% confirmed through laparoscopic.
