What is Appendicitis?

Appendicitis is the inflammation of the appendix, a small, tube-shaped organ attached to the large intestine. It usually occurs due to a blockage that leads to infection. If not treated promptly, the appendix can burst (rupture), leading to serious complications such as peritonitis (infection of the abdominal cavity) or abscess formation.

Symptoms of Appendicitis

Appendicitis symptoms often develop quickly and include:

  • Pain in the lower right abdomen, starting near the navel

  • Loss of appetite

  • Nausea and vomiting

  • Fever and chills

  • Constipation or diarrhea

  • Abdominal bloating

  • In younger children, symptoms may be less typical, making early diagnosis crucial.

These signs require immediate medical evaluation, especially in children and adolescents.

Diagnosis and Treatment in Ghaziabad

At our Ghaziabad facility, we use clinical examination, blood tests, ultrasound, and CT scans to diagnose appendicitis quickly and accurately.

The standard treatment is appendectomy—surgical removal of the appendix. We offer:

  • Laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery for faster recovery, minimal scarring, and less pain

  • Open surgery in complicated or ruptured cases

Most patients can return home within 24–48 hours after laparoscopic surgery, with a complete recovery in about a week.
