Title: What is appendix and how to get rid of


1
Why you have appendix?
2
Introduction of Appendix
  • An appendix is a small size pouch which is
    located at the gut wall, at the start of the
    large intestine. The inflammation of the appendix
    causes the appendicitis which is common. It is a
    painful situation and typically starts with pain.
    The pain gets worse with the passage of time
    because it travels to the lower right side.
    However, the pain is constant and severe.
  • The medical professionals are unable to find the
    reason behind the pain but putting stress like
    walking, coughing make the pain worse. The
    patient loses his appetite, experience diarrhea
    and often feel sick. What side is your appendix
    on? You need to know because if you suffer from
    pain, you need immediate treatment. In the severe
    cases, appendicitis needs to be operated because
    a person dies if it bursts.

Causes and Functions
  • When the appendix becomes inflamed, it blocks the
    short appendix. It may occur due to the hard
    stools which often gets stuck. Sometimes it may
    happen because of the indigestible food carried
    from small to large intestine. The stool is then
    forced to out by the wall of the appendix, but if
    it may get stuck, then blockage is the result of
    the appendix. The bacteria and germs become the
    reason of inflammation and block the appendix.
  • Appendicitis is the inflammation caused in the
    appendix. In this condition, the appendix is
    infected with bacteria from intestine which
    swells and keeps on filling with pus. It must be
    treated on time because the appendix gets
    expanded and may burst. This is a very dangerous
    condition because the contents I the appendix may
    leak in the abdomen. Early treatment is suggested
    in this case.

Symptoms of Appendix
  • Following are the other symptoms
  • Nausea or feeling sick
  • Fever and feeling unwell with high temperature
  • Diarrhea and constipation may occur
  • You may suffer from the frequent passing of urine
    which will be irritating. The inflammation may
    start to develop near the ureter tube which is
    located in between the bladder and kidney.
