Can common appendicitis be treated?

Patient's question:

Recently, I've been experiencing swelling on both sides of my lower abdomen, with the right side being worse. I also feel discomfort on the inner side of my thighs and a heavy sensation in my lower back. After examination, it was diagnosed as adnexitis. Can adnexitis heal on its own?

Doctor's answer:

Appendicitis can heal on its own. Appendicitis refers to the inflammation of the fallopian tubes and ovaries. It is the most common type of gynecological inflammation and can be divided into acute appendicitis and chronic appendicitis. In clinical diagnosis, broad-spectrum antibiotics are primarily used, or drugs are selected based on drug sensitivity, such as tetracycline, sulfadiazine, norfloxacin, metronidazole, penicillin, or other cephalosporins. Taking only antibiotic drugs is not very effective for appendicitis, and long-term supportive therapy is required, which means enhancing nutrition and stabilizing the body's immune system. The most important way to enhance the body's immunity is to exercise regularly. Exercise can stabilize the body's immunity and also make both the mind and body feel better.
