Can appendicitis cause back pain? What are the symptoms of appendicitis?

Appendicitis is a disease we are relatively familiar with. We must not underestimate the impact of appendicitis. If appropriate treatment measures are not taken when acute appendicitis occurs, the patient may suffer serious damage to his health and may even be in danger of life. Understanding the symptoms of appendicitis is conducive to early treatment.

1. Chronic appendicitis is a type of appendicitis. Appendicitis is divided into acute appendicitis and chronic appendicitis. Generally speaking, acute appendicitis is more common, while chronic appendicitis is relatively rare. Under normal circumstances, chronic appendicitis will not cause low back pain.

2. We said earlier that under normal circumstances, chronic appendicitis will not cause low back pain. However, there is currently a saying that when appendicitis is displaced, it may cause varying degrees of low back pain. Retroperitoneal appendix may cause low back pain, and specific examination requires going to the hospital.

3. The main symptom of chronic appendicitis is abdominal pain. The patient has pain in the right lower abdomen, and it is intermittent dull pain or bloating. The pain site is relatively fixed, and the pain condition is also uncertain. Sometimes it is very painful, and sometimes it is just a slight pain.

4. In addition to pain in the lower right abdomen, if there is indigestion, loss of appetite and sudden weight loss, you should also pay attention to whether it is chronic appendicitis. If the patient feels tenderness in a fixed position in the abdomen, you should be vigilant. It is best to go to the hospital for examination. Early detection and early treatment are better.
