What antibiotics can treat appendicitis?

Patient's question:

What antibiotics can treat appendicitis?

Doctor's answer:

For patients with obvious symptoms of appendicitis, antibiotics should be the first choice of treatment. Antibiotics can kill residual pathogenic bacteria and prevent acute exacerbations. Commonly used drugs still include penicillin, gentamicin, metronidazole, etc. Additionally, physical therapy and warm, benign stimulation can promote pelvic blood circulation and improve the nutritional status of local tissues, facilitating the absorption and resolution of inflammation.
