The appendix, a finger-shaped pouch that emerges from your colon on the lower right side of your abdomen and doesn’t appear to serve any particular function, can become inflamed and cause appendicitis.
Your lower right abdomen will feel painful if you have appendicitis, but for most people, the pain starts at the navel and moves to the lower right abdomen as the inflammation worsens.
Appendicitis can affect anyone, but it most frequently affects people between the ages of 10 and 30.
CausesAppendicitis is likely caused by an infection that develops as a result of a blockage in the appendix’s lining. If it is not treated quickly, the appendix can rupture.
Symptoms–Some possible appendicitis symptoms and signs are:
A sudden pain in the lower abdomen that starts on the right side.
A sharp pain in your lower right abdomen that often radiates from the area around your navel.
Aching that gets worse when you cough, move jarringly, or do other things.
· Nausea and vomiting
· Loss of appetite
Mild fever that could get worse as the illness gets worse
· Constipation or diarrhea
· Abdominal bloating
Depending on your age and the location of your appendix, your pain may be felt in a different area of your abdomen depending on your age.
Complications–Serious side effects of appendicitis include:
A ruptured appendix.This potentially fatal condition necessitates immediate surgery to remove the appendix and clean your abdominal cavity because a rupture spreads infection throughout your abdomen (peritonitis).
A pocket of pus that forms in the abdomen.If your appendix ruptures, you may develop an infection pocket (abscess), which a surgeon will typically drain by inserting a tube through your abdominal wall into the abscess. The tube is left in place for two weeks, and you are then given antibiotics to treat the infection.
HOMOEOPATHIC REMEDIES
Homoeopathic medicines manage this condition successfully without surgery and stop the recurrence of appendicitis, despite the fact that appendicitis is still thought of as a surgical disease.
BRYONIA ALBA 1XOne of the best treatments for acute appendicitis is bryonia. Bryonia is prescribed when there is tenderness in the right lower abdomen, pain that is made worse by movement, better by lying on the painful side, and relief from pressure. The patient should also have a thirst for large amounts of cold water and should not want to be touched.
IRIS TENAX IXThere is a terrifying pain in the ileo-caecal region, along with great tenderness to pressure and a deadly sensation at the pit of the stomach. Iris tenax is thought to be a near specific for acute appendicitis and can be used when no indication for other treatments is present.
SULPHUR 1000Sulphur should be administered as a complementary treatment to finish the healing process.
BELLADONNA 200Belladonna is best for acute appendicitis and should be administered after Iris tenax has failed. Just like Iris tenax, Belladonna has severe pain in the ileo-caecal region that is worse from jerk, incapacitation to the tiniest touch, including that of a bed cover, and a throbbing headache, vomiting, and fever without perspiration.
BAPTISIA TICTORIA CM—Baptisia is another efficient treatment for acute appendicitis, and one dose in the disease’s acute form can prevent the need for surgery.
DIOSCOREA VILLOSA QDioscorea, which is prescribed when the pain is constant and the patient has not previously experienced complete relief, is another effective treatment for acute appendicitis pain.
LYCOPODIUM CLAVATUM 1000Give Lycopodium 1000 every two weeks to help control the acute pain of appendicitis. Lycopodium clavatum also helps to prevent the attack from recurring.
PLUMBUM METALLICUM 30When vomiting is the main symptom of an acute appendicitis, plumbum met is recommended. There is a sharp pain that is made worse by touch or motion.
IGNATIA AMARA 30-Ignatia mara is recommended for acute appendicitis when the patient is hot and rigid and is experiencing severe anxiety due to the pain and their fear of having an operation.
ECHINACEA 1X-Consider using echinacea if you have an appendicitis that is septic. This remedy’s signature symptom is fatigue.
RHUS TOXICODENDRON 30In septic cases of appendicitis, rhus tox should also be taken into account because there is severe pain and widespread swelling over the ileocaecal region.
PSORINUM 200After an acute attack has passed, psorinum should be administered to stop the disease from returning.
