FAQ’s

A blind-ended tube connected to a pouch like structure i.e. cecum, is known as Appendix. It develops from cecum embryo logically. The cecum is a structure of colon which is located at the junction of both intestines (small and large).

The appendix rests on the junction of the small intestine and large intestine. It is a thin tube of approximately four inch length. Normally, the appendix is located in the lower right- hand side of the abdomen. Appendicitis pain may initiate in the middle part of the abdomen.

  • The appendix is a small, worm-like external body part or an outgrowth attached to the colon. When the appendix gets blocked, Appendicitis occurs.
  • Appendicitis is an inflammation of the appendix, a pouch-shaped organ connected to the large intestine. Without treatment, the appendix can rupture. This can lead to life -threatening situations. It is recommended to seek medical advise if there are possible symptoms of Appendicitis.

Symptoms of appendicitis progress over several hours to a couple of days, and usually begin with mild pain near the belly button that moves to the lower right quadrant of the belly and becomes sharper.

This pain usually is worse when you try to move, take deep breaths, or cough and sneeze. Sometimes the pain occurs suddenly, and it can be very severe, different from other abdominal pain you’ve felt before.

Other symptoms of appendicitis that accompany the abdominal pain include:
– Loss of appetite
– Nausea and/or vomiting
– Abdominal bloating or swelling
– Constipation, diarrhea, and gas (or an inability to pass gas)
– Fever
– Feeling like a bowel movement will relieve the pain
– Pain elsewhere in the abdomen, in the back, or in the rectal area
– Indigestion
– Painful urination
– General feeling of being unwell (malaise)

Causes of appendicitis are unknown in most of the cases. There is possibility of many reasons behind the occurrence of appendicitis. According to medical professionals, an obstruction in the appendix may lead to the appendicitis. Partial and complete obstruction; both can be responsible for the occurrence of appendicitis. An accumulation of fecal matter may lead to obstruction. The other possible reasons behind the obstruction are listed below:

  • Tumors
  • Worms
  • Enlarged lymphoid follicles
  • Trauma

There are chances of multiplication of bacteria inside the organs surrounding the colon when there is obstruction in the appendix. This enhances formation of pus which puts additional pressure and it can be painful. As a result of this process, local blood vessels get compressed and there can be generation of gangrene due to lack of blood flow to appendix. A medical emergency may arise if the appendix rupture takes place and fecal matter can fill into the abdomen.

True. Appendicitis is a medical emergency. If you are experiencing any symptoms you think might be appendicitis, go to an emergency department or call 911 immediately.

If you have appendicitis you will likely need emergency surgery to remove the appendix (an appendectomy).

An appendectomy reduces the chance of having a ruptured (burst) appendix. The appendix may be removed using laparoscopic surgery (a laparoscopic appendectomy), which involves smaller incisions and shorter recovery time.

In some instances of mild appendicitis, it may be treated with antibiotics alone, though the standard treatment for appendicitis remains an appendectomy.

Testimonials

Dr. Abhijit Gotkhinde sir operated my father for piles using a laser technique. Initially, we were quite anxious but after discussing with him about the procedure we felt confident. Surgery was done in less than 30 min & it was absolutely pain-free. He recovered in a single day. Within 1 week he is ready to work. Now we are thinking we would have done the procedure prior only. I must say, Dr. Gotkhinde is the best laser surgeon for piles.
