What should I do if I get appendicitis after pregnancy?

Patient's question:

Abdominal pain, especially during those days, I'm very afraid it will affect fertility. What should I do if I get appendicitis after getting pregnant?

Doctor's answer:

After pregnancy, if you develop adnexitis, mild adnexitis generally does not interfere with the fetus. However, severe adnexitis may lead to premature rupture of membranes or intrauterine infection. It is recommended to go to a regular hospital for relevant examinations. Based on the examination results, appropriate and standardized treatment should be administered with the doctor being aware of the pregnancy. It is absolutely forbidden to self-medicate to avoid interfering with the health of the fetus. In addition to symptomatic treatment for adnexitis, patients should also pay attention to nursing care, such as maintaining a light diet and engaging in more outdoor activities. At the same time, patients should also pay attention to choosing a regular hospital for treatment to obtain good therapeutic effects.
