I am 49 and have a rumbling appendix. Is it a good idea to have it removed? How long will it take, how much would it cost and what is the recovery time? |

Dear Madam Old term for chronic appendicitis is called Grumbling Appendix. Chronic appendicitis has numerous features which are similar to the acute appendicitis. The common feature of both two is that both in the cases pain occurs. The place from the body where such kind of pain occurs is the lower right portion of the abdomen of an individual. There's one major difference between the 2 which is that in case of acute appendicitis, doctors remove the appendix which in turn causes severe in your body of the person whereas when it comes to chronic appendicitis, doctors don't remove the appendix but try to remove the pain with the help of medicines. In the event of the body part named as appendix two kinds of pain exists. One is the pain sensation which occurs suddenly after which you have the pain which does not occur suddenly but develops because the time passes. This kind of pain has been said to be the grumbling pain. The pain sensation is associated with the appendix and is thus known as Grumbling Appendix. We find such kind such kind of Grumbling Appendix after examining around the a part of appendix. Chronic pain isn't severely whereas the acute appendix pin is very severe. There are various symptoms which are related to such kind of appendix. The patient which experiences such kind of pain undergoes through various problems. The individual has a tendency to have vomiting. To find out such type of appendix pain, the doctor conducts a test for that patients. The exam that is conducted by the doctor is known as computer tomography scan. This specific scan is done within the abdomen part in the body of the individual since the appendix of a body's based in the abdomen part. Following the report comes, doctor examines it. If swelling occurs in the abdomen, then it is known that the person suffers from such kind of chronic appendix. I think you should get this operated. In our hospital this surgery by laparoscopy will cost you 35,000 rupees. You will be discharged next day and you need rest for 2 week at home. With regards M.K. Gupta This sort of appendix gets very bad as time passes. It ought to be treated on time otherwise its condition worsens. The pain of these appendix does not increase together at particular moment of your time however it increases after a while. In such type of situation doctors should be referred immediately and the proper medication should be taken. Such type of appendix, doctors don't operate and take away it. The pain occurs because of the infection that persists in the appendix. In order to prevent it, doctors recommend an antibiotic for the patients that help in reducing the infection and therefore remove the pain. The patient in this way gets relieved of the disease. |
