Appendicitis is an inflamed appendix. Appendix is a small, tubular pouch, about the size of a finger, that protrudes from the lower right end of your large intestine. Poop (feces) moving through your large intestine can block or infect your appendix, leading to inflammation.
Chronic appendicitis is a rare condition that appears to occur when something irritates your appendix in an on-and-off sort of way over a long period.
Chronic appendicitis may go unrecognized because the symptoms don\u2019t escalate the way they do in acute appendicitis. But any type of appendicitis is serious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The most common symptoms of appendicitis are abdominal pain, nausea and loss of appetite.
In the typical presentation, abdominal pain begins in the middle of your abdomen, around your belly button. It may hover or may come and go for several hours. Eventually, the pain intensifies, and nausea and vomiting develop. Several hours later, the nausea passes, and the pain shifts to your lower right abdomen, where your appendix is. The pain becomes more focused and continues to worsen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
McBurney\u2019s sign. McBurney\u2019s point is the most typical location of the appendix, and tenderness there is the first thing that we examine.
Blumberg\u2019s sign. Pressure applied to the sore area feels worse when it\u2019s released also known as rebound tenderness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Appendicitis is inflammation and infection of the appendix ( a thin tube of tissue that is connected to intestines).
Appendicitis seems to develop when the appendix becomes blocked either by hard fecal material (called a fecalith) or Swollen lymph nodes in the intestines.
Appendix is the reservoir for beneficial gut bacteria. The most common bacteria that can cause acute appendicitis are intestinal bacteria including Escherichia Coli and bacteria belonging to the Bactericides Fragilis group [4]. Their onset is sudden and has a definite course & quick expression of action.
They terminated within a short time either with complete recovery or after the death of the patient [5]. Appendectomy is re- inflammation of the residual appendiceal
tissue after months to years. Appendicitis is the most common cause of acute abdomen requiring surgery. Prompt diagnosis is necessary as delayed diagnosis may lead to increased morbidity and mortality due to complications like perforation, gangrene, and phlegm on formation [6]. There are some postoperative complications after appendectomy including wound infection, intra-abdominal abscess, retrocecal abscess, intestinal perforation with
peritonitis, bleeding and adhesions occurred. Appendectomy is very dangerous for Comorbidity patients as well. So, here is the beauty of homeopathic management in acute appendicitis.
In the Aphorism, no. 72 & 73 were described the acute disease are the result of a rapid morbid process of the deranged vital force [7, 8]. Meanwhile, Homoeopathic intervention can
manage appendicitis within a few weeks & it\u2019s shown through this case report with supporting documents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
