Patient's question:
Recently, I suddenly started experiencing pain in my lower back and abdomen, and sometimes it also aches in the lower abdomen. My friend told me it might be appendicitis, and if it's not treated promptly, it could lead to infertility, urging me to get a thorough check-up. Hello, can an ultrasound detect appendicitis at the hospital? How should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
Appendicitis is a common gynecological disease diagnosed clinically. It is caused by inflammatory infections and primarily manifests as lower back and abdominal pain. In severe cases, it can affect normal work and daily life. If there are subtle symptoms of appendicitis, it is absolutely crucial not to take them lightly or be complacent. You should promptly visit a regular hospital's gynecological department for follow-up. An ultrasound can provide a clear and definitive diagnosis. Medications such as quinolone or cephalosporin anti-inflammatory drugs, metronidazole, and Gynecological Qianjin Tablets can be very effective in treating the condition.
