Appendicitis Health Center

Appendicitis is a condition where the appendix becomes inflamed and filled with pus. Appendicitis typically causes pain which begins around the navel and then shifts to lower right abdomen. The pain from appendicitis typically increases over a period of 12 to 18 hours and eventually becomes very severe. Though appendicitis can affect anyone, it usually occurs in people between ages of 10 and 30.
