How is appendicitis usually treated effectively?

Patient's question:

My friend recently found out she has appendicitis. I'd like to ask how effective the treatment for appendicitis is generally.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, this condition should be caused by appendicitis. Commonly used medications still include penicillin, gentamicin, metronidazole, etc. It is recommended to do an abdominal ultrasound for a thorough examination to check if it is endometritis or pelvic inflammatory disease. Maintain good living habits, pay attention to diet to avoid spicy and greasy foods. Additionally, during treatment, avoid using topical medications or wipes during menstruation. However, it is important to focus on diet and lifestyle adjustments for recovery. There are many treatment methods for appendicitis, but since the patient's condition varies, the treatment approach differs accordingly. Therefore, it is necessary for the patient to be diagnosed as soon as possible to prescribe the correct medication.
