What are the causes of appendicitis?

Patient's question:

Lower left abdominal heaviness and fullness, as well as left waist soreness and discomfort, have been present for over two months. The examination suggested appendicitis, but after receiving intravenous anti-inflammatory medication for more than a week, there has been no improvement. Taking Western medicine has also shown no effect, and even when taking medication during episodes of pain, the condition cannot be controlled.

Doctor's answer:

1. Medication treatment, suitable anti-inflammatory drugs can be selected for symptomatic treatment.
2. Surgical treatment, if conservative treatment is ineffective for acute adnexal inflammation, surgical treatment should be considered. For chronic adnexal inflammation that does not improve with prolonged treatment and leads to fallopian tube hydrops, surgical treatment should also be chosen.
3. Physical therapy, there are various types of physical therapy, such as laser, microwave, and ion penetration for treatment.
