Lifeline: Appendicitis – Why It Happens And How It Is Treated? seg 1
The appendix is a small finger-shaped pouch on the right side of the abdomen, connected to the colon. Appendicitis is a condition where the appendix becomes swollen, inflamed, and filled with pus.
Experts are not sure what role the appendix carries out. Charles Darwin wondered whether it might have been an organ our ancestors used to digest fibrous plant material like tree bark.
Obstruction is often due to an accumulation of fecal matter. It can also be the result of:
enlarged lymphoid follicles
worms
trauma
tumors
What causes appendicitis?
Experts believe there are two likely causes of appendicitis:
Infection – a stomach infection may have found its way to the appendix.
Obstruction – a hard piece of stool may have got trapped in the appendix. The bacteria in the trapped stool might then infect the appendix.
