Patient's question:
Lower left abdominal pain, sometimes with the sensation of needing to have a bowel movement but unable to do so. After the pain, there is reddish discharge.Doctor's answer:
Appendicitis is primarily diagnosed based on symptoms and physical signs. A small amount of pelvic effusion can also be present in normal individuals. The physical sign should be a thickened, cord-like fallopian tube on one side of the uterus compared to the other, accompanied by mild tenderness. Diagnosis should not rely solely on symptoms, so it is recommended that you undergo an internal examination for a thorough check. If the internal examination confirms appendicitis, a comprehensive evaluation method of treatment is advisable.Lifestyle care: Pay attention to personal hygiene, exercise regularly, strengthen your physical fitness, and promptly and thoroughly treat pelvic inflammation.
There are many treatment methods for appendicitis, but since patients have different symptoms, the diagnostic approach may vary. Therefore, it is recommended that patients seek diagnosis and treatment as soon as possible after noticing symptoms.
