What Is Appendicitis?
5. Other Symptoms
In addition to pain, appendicitis will also sometimes cause other symptoms that can range in severity. These symptoms will tend to include nausea, and this will also sometimes cause the patient to vomit. A fever is also likely to be present, which can be mild at first, only for it to get gradually worse as the appendicitis develops.
Appendicitis will also cause flatulence in some patients, and many will also experience bloating that can be quite uncomfortable. It is also likely that the patient will experience diarrhea or constipation. A loss of appetite will also be a symptom in many cases.
