summary

Appendicitis is a common surgical disease. I believe people have heard of it. However, people don't have a surprising understanding of the symptoms of appendicitis. Many people mistook appendicitis for stomachache, eating bad stomachache and so on. I remember a classmate in junior high school had a sudden pain in his lower abdomen when he was in class. The pain was unbearable, and his temperature was still rising superficially, There is also the feeling of nausea and vomiting, the teacher sent him to the hospital in a panic, the doctor said that it is appendicitis need to do surgery, so what are the specific symptoms of appendicitis? Now let me introduce it to you

What are the symptoms of chronic appendicitis

First: abdominal pain is the most common symptom, appendicitis abdominal pain is characterized by metastatic abdominal pain, that is, at the beginning of the abdominal pain around the navel, after a few hours or half a day abdominal pain transferred to the right lower abdomen. Most of them are persistent pain, and may have paroxysmal aggravation. Children often lie on their right legs and dare not walk straight. Babies often express abdominal pain by crying. Children often lie in bed and dare not move or groan.

Second: fever: generally, fever can occur within a few hours after the onset of the disease. With the development of the disease, the body temperature rises to 38 degrees - 39 degrees or even higher.

Third: right lower abdominal tenderness is a reliable sign of appendicitis. If there is muscle tension, resistance, then the diagnosis is more clear.

matters needing attention

Some appendicitis symptoms can not be typical, young people are more common, and because young children can not cooperate with the examination, easy to misdiagnose. For example, at the beginning, it was often thought to be enteritis. If at the same time some cough, pharyngeal congestion, easy to diagnose upper respiratory tract infection or tonsillitis. Young children's resistance is low, appendicitis is easy to cause peritonitis perforation. Therefore, all children with abdominal pain or crying for more than 2-3 hours should be treated in time to the hospital.
