WHAT IS APPENDIX?
The appendix is a small, worm-like appendage attached to the colon.
It is a small, pouch-like sac of tissue that is located in the first part of the colon know as the cecum in the lower- right abdomen.
Appendix's official name is veriform appendix, meaning "worm-like appendage."
Appendix harbors bacteria.
WHAT THEN IS APPENDICITIS?
It is a condition where the appendix becomes swollen, inflamed, and filled with pus.
It may be acute or chronic.
Appendicitis can happen at any time, but it occurs most often between the ages of 10 and 30. It is however more common in males than in females.
If it is untreated, appendicitis may cause one's appendix to burst, causing infection.
CAUSES OF APPENDICITIS:
It's not really clear what causes appendicitis, but it's sometimes due to a viral, bacterial, or fungal infection that has spread to the appendix.
SYMPTOMS OF APPENDICITIS:
°pain around the bellybutton
°lower right side abdominal pain
°loss of appetite
°nausea
°vomiting
°diarrhea
°constipation
°inability to pass gas
°abdominal swelling
°low-grade fever
°a sense that you might feel better after passing stool
TREATMENT OF APPENDICITIS:
surgery is recommended in most cases, though it's highly dependent on the details of the case.
In rare cases, appendicitis may get better with no surgery involved.
This becomes an option if one's abdominal pain is minimal and his diagnostic tests are normal. In this case, one's treatment plan might only involve antibiotics and a liquid diet until the symptoms vanished.
FOR HERBAL TREATMENT!
Get about 6 big leaves of alovera, mash into pieces, then mash about 5 bulbs of garlic onions and ginger, put all into 25cl bottle of water.
Allow for 2 days.
Take one short 3 times daily until it vanishes.
Prepare new one after a week, store in a cool dry place.
