Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Signs of inflammation at site of appendix suggests appendicitis.
It can be treated palliatively or by surgery.
-a)do not massage or foment abdomen.Take medicines advised by a surgeon .. (antibiotic,anti inflammatory &metranidazole...medicines)/taking rest & light diet .
-b) Need forsurgery... arises if it turns to acute abdomen (pain,fever,vomitting,)These symptoms indicate urgent intervention by appendisectomy.... in such case ER visit is needful.
