What is Understanding Appendicitis: Symptoms & Treatment about?
Inflammation of the appendix is known as appendicitis, which is the most common surgical emergency. Symptoms include abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting and fever. Diagnosis involves physical examination for tenderness and pain in the lower right abdomen as well as supporting tests showing white blood cell count elevation. Treatment is through appendectomy, either via conventional open surgery or laparoscopically. Complications can include perforation leading to peritonitis or periappendiceal abscess formation
