Before going for Appendicitis treatment, your doctor will recommend you to undergo some basic tests such as physical examination of your abdomen, blood tests such as CBC, LFT, KFT, urine test and diagnostic test such as abdominal x ray, ultrasound, CT scan and MRI to detect the cause of your Appendicitis.
The cost are included in the package but if you have decided to get your medicines from somewhere else then you have to pay for it.
Appendicitis surgery is done under general anaesthesia and it requires hospital stay of one to two days after surgery.
There are two different treatment modalities for appendicitis surgery.
For a laparoscopic appendectomy- Your surgeon will begin with a tiny incision near the belly button. They’ll insert a tiny port into the incision, and through the port, they’ll insert a tiny tube called a cannula. The cannula is used to inflate your abdominal cavity with carbon dioxide gas. After that laparoscope is inserted which is a long thin tube with a tiny light and high –resolution camera which displays image on video screen through which the surgeon guide the instrument through one of three tiny incision.
Open appendectomy- Surgeon will make one larger incision in your lower right abdomen. They will open the abdominal cavity and separate your abdominal muscles to locate the appendix beneath. If your appendix has ruptured, there may be an abscess or fluid in the abdominal cavity to drain before they can perform the appendectomy and abdominal cavity is rinsed with a saline solution. Drainage tube will be left if you have peritonitis and your drainage will be removed and after few days and the incision will be closed with stitches.
Even though appendicitis treatment is not a major procedure but some of the insurance companies do cover the cost of the appendicitis treatment.
Antibiotics is alone used as an alternative to appendectomy for uncomplicated acute appendicitis in adults.

A little pouch that is connected to the big intestine is the appendix. It is located in the bottom right corner of your abdomen. Your appendix has to be removed immediately if you develop appendicitis.
Although appendicitis may afflict anybody, it most frequently affects people between the ages of 10 and 30. Appendicitis does not usually have a clear-cut etiology. When a tough piece of feces obstructs the appendix's entrance, appendicitis might result from the occlusion. An intestinal infection or other forms of inflammation can potentially lead to appendicitis. The appendix becomes large, inflammatory, and pus-filled as the number of germs in its cavity increases quickly.
The possibility of a ruptured appendix is the biggest issue with appendicitis. If the appendix is not promptly removed, this could occur. Peritonitis, a stomach illness, can result from a burst appendix. If addressed promptly, peritonitis can be exceedingly dangerous and even fatal.
The following are some potential side effects of an appendectomy:
The removal of the appendix usually has no lasting effects on the patient. Incisional hernias, stump appendicitis (infections caused by a retained piece of the appendix), and intestinal blockage, however, may be more common in some people.
If your appendix ruptured, you could require long-term antibiotic treatment to entirely eradicate the infection. It might take you six weeks or more to heal.
The surgery takes around one hour to complete.
Broadly 2 types of surgeries are performed remove the appendix.
Most people recover fully after surgery within 2 to 6 weeks and don't experience any significant, long-term health issues.
If you notice any of the symptoms then you should immediately contact your doctor:
An incisional hernia after an appendectomy is an extremely uncommon complication that affects fewer than 0.12% of individuals while being a highly common surgical surgery. When the hernia sac is sandwiched between the layers of the abdominal wall, it is referred to as an interstitial incisional hernia.
After an appendectomy, your recovery time should be rather short. One to two days following surgery, the majority of patients are discharged.
Everyday, drink a lot of water to aid with constipation prevention. Make sure you get enough sleep. A fast lifestyle, with inadequate diet, will slow your recovery. Avoid lifting heavy objects and stair climbing, so that you don't strain your abdominal muscles.
