What Is The Remedy For Weakness And Back Pain After The Removal Of Appendix?
I recently had my appendix removed (3 weeks ago) I ended up getting a abscess that they had to put a drain in 2 days ago. I thought I would be feeling better by today, however I am really weak and have back pain. Is this normal? I don t seem to have a fever, and my drain seems to be working properly.

If you are still having fever that means you are not completely out of infection. So I would suggest you to continue antibiotics. Once fever will suicide, you will feel more strength. If you feel dehydrated you can take it glucose and saline. For back pain, apply diclofenec ointment. I think it is related to fever only.
