Detailed Answer:
Hi
You just asked about Appendicitis operation.
I would like to know some more information
1. What is the duration of pain in the right lower part of the Abdomen? whether it is associated with Vomiting, fever?
2.Whether Ultrasound/CT scan abdomen is done?
Regarding Appendicitis operation, it can be done Laparoscopically or by giving a Single incision over the stomach, on the right lower part(this is the area where Appendix is located)
The laparoscopic approach is Superior and the patient can be discharged soon from the Hospital.
Hope I answered your query.
If you come back with answers to my questions, I will clarify further.
Wish you good health.
