General Appendicitis Information
Appendicitis is inflammation of the appendix, a lymphoid organ that opens into the large intestine. Once thought to serve no known function, the appendix is now believed to play a part in immune system function. Appendicitis results in abdominal pain and inflammation of the lining of the abdominal cavity.

Possible Causes of Appendicitis
Appendicitis is caused by improper diet and too little fiber. A blockage in the large intestine stops the flow of fluids, resulting in inflammation of the appendix.

Possible Symptoms and Complications of Appendicitis
Symptoms of appendicitis include severe abdominal pain the starts at the navel and radiates to the lower right abdomen. Coughing, sneezing, deep breaths, moving or touching the area makes the pain worse. Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal swelling, mild fever, constipation, painful urination, inability to pass gas, blood in the urine and an elevated white blood cell count are also signs of appendicitis. Without treatment, the appendix could burst, releasing fecal matter into the area.


Complications of appendicitis include performation of the intestines, abscess and death of intestinal tissue.

Possible Lifestyle Changes for Appendicitis
To lessen the chance of developing appendicitis, eat a diet high in fiber, avoid refined and fried foods and limit intake of cooked animal proteins to one per day. If appendicitis is suspected, do not use laxatives and avoid using a heating pad. Avoid eating and drinking. Do not take pain relievers, as they may mask symptoms and complicate diagnosis.
