What is Severe Abdominal Pain Due to Appendicitis?
Appendicitis is the inflammation of the appendix, a small pouch attached to the large intestine. It most commonly occurs in people between 10 and 30 years of age. The condition is usually caused by a blockage in the appendix, leading to infection, swelling, and pus formation. If left untreated, the appendix can rupture and spread infection throughout the abdomen, resulting in a serious condition known as peritonitis.
Common symptoms of appendicitis include:
- Sudden pain that begins near the navel and shifts to the lower right abdomen
- Pain that worsens with movement or coughing
- Nausea and vomiting
- Loss of appetite
The definitive treatment for acute appendicitis is surgical removal of the appendix, known as an appendectomy. This procedure permanently resolves the condition and prevents life-threatening complications.
