Typical clinical symptoms of acute appendicitis?

Typical acute appendicitis is characterized by pain in the middle and upper abdomen or around the umbilicus at the initial stage, and the pain is transferred and fixed in the right lower abdomen several hours later. In the early stage, it is a kind of visceral nerve reflex pain, so the range of pain in the middle and upper abdomen and around the umbilicus is more diffuse, often can not be accurately located.

When the inflammation spread to the serosa and parietal peritoneum, the pain was fixed in the right lower abdomen, and the pain in the original middle upper abdomen or periumbilical was alleviated or disappeared. However, acute appendicitis can not be excluded without typical metastatic right lower abdominal pain.

Simple appendicitis often presents paroxysmal or persistent distending pain and dull pain. Persistent severe pain often indicates suppurative or gangrenous appendicitis. Persistent severe pain affects the middle and lower abdomen or both sides of the lower abdomen, which is often a sign of gangrene and perforation of the appendix. Sometimes gangrene and perforation of appendix can relieve abdominal pain, but the relief of pain is temporary, and other accompanying symptoms and signs are not improved, or even aggravated.
