Should I Be Worried Of Having Random Sharp Pains In Appendix Area For Over A Year?
i have been having random sharp pains in my apendix area for over a year now and awhile i got sick and the doctor said my appendix is tender. Is my appendix going to burst any time soon? they are on and off every once in awhile. When I stretch out it hurts sometimes when I get up it hurts. I have no other symptoms
Hi Welcome to Healthcare-Magic Greetings of the day
Its likely that you are suffering from recurrent appendicits. If the Surgeon has documented classical signs and symptoms of appendicitis during assessment for pain, its highly recommended to go for appendectomy to prevent complication of perforation.
Its better to have a planned surgery then operate on highly inflammed/perforated appendix
In case you need any further assistance, will be glad to assist you.
Wishing you happy and healthy life
Take Care
Best Regards Dr Deepak K K MBBS,MS,MCH
