What Is Appendicitis?
4. Symptoms
Perhaps the most common symptom of appendicitis is the pain it can cause. It will usually come on suddenly, and it will usually start in the navel region. The pain will then tend to move towards the lower right region of the abdomen. The location of the pain can depend on a number of factors,
For example, people that are pregnant will likely experience pain in the upper part of the abdomen. The pain is also likely to become worse if you try to walk, or if you make sudden movements such as moving from coughing. The pain is usually intense enough to let the patient know that they have a problem.
