Patient's question:
I am 34 years old. Recently, I don't know why I have been feeling nauseous and like vomiting. My stomach has been, sometimes with symptoms of heartburn and acid reflux. I went to the hospital, and it was treated for a while, but then it flared up again. Could you please tell me if it's gastroenteritis or appendicitis?Doctor's answer:
The patient did not interpret your clinical diagnostic symptoms, and in this case, we cannot make a speculative diagnosis. If it is appendicitis, it may initially cause pain around the navel, then shift to the right lower abdomen, accompanied by significant tenderness, rebound tenderness, and other symptoms. It may also be accompanied by fever and nausea. If the hospital's color Doppler ultrasound and other careful examinations have already made a diagnosis, it is recommended to follow the doctor's advice for treatment. Generally, surgery is recommended for treatment.
