Causes:
The exact cause can not be found in most cases but the usual underlying cause is blockage of the lumen of the appendix which causes infection by bacteria. The pressure inside the appendix increases and it begins to swell leading to pain. If not treated on time, pus can form inside the appendix and later appendix may rupture leading to the spread of pus.
Complications:
- Pus formation – Pus may form inside the appendix and later may rupture the appendix and leak to the surrounding area. It may remain close to the appendix only and will require surgery to remove the pus. Surrounding organs like small and large intestine etc. get stuck with this pus pocket making surgery difficult.
- Peritonitis – Rupture of the appendix may lead to generalized infection of abdomen known as peritonitis. This is a life-threatening condition and requires immediate surgery.
Complications:
- Examination by a doctor – After taking an appropriate history, the Surgeon will examine the abdomen of the patient to look for signs of appendicitis like pain on pressing right lower abdomen, etc.
- Blood Tests – It may show signs of infection like high leukocyte count etc.
- Urine Test – Pain of appendicitis can be similar to pain due to stone in the right kidney or ureter, so urine tests may help in finding our if you have a urinary stone problem.
- Ultrasound of the abdomen – It may show appendicitis or may pick up other reasons for pain like a stone, cyst, etc. But it may not be possible to see inflamed appendix on ultrasound in all patients and there may be an indirect sign of appendicitis.
- CT scan of abdomen – CT scan is considered to be better than ultrasound in diagnosing appendicitis and is done in doubtful cases where ultrasound is not able to give a clear answer and clinically also diagnosis is doubtful. It is not done is all cases as it involves radiation exposure to patients and is also much more expensive as compared to ultrasound.
