What is appendicitis? Appendicitis is inflammation of the appendix, a small, potentially vestigial organ that branches off the large intestine. Inflammation is usually a result of some sort of obstruction in the lumen of the appendix, which ultimately leads to infection. Find our full video library only on Osmosis: osms.it/more.

I am two weeks post surgery. The pain came out of nowhere. I was not hungry the night before and woke up with severe pain, nausea, and vomiting. Went to the ER and after a CT scan was on the operating table within 30 minutes with a blood infection. It’s no joke how quickly this can sneak up on you. Don’t ignore the pain.

I’m 5 days post op. I didn’t have any of the typical symptoms. Only had abdominal. Went to the med stop, they thought it was a UTI or kidney stone but to see my doctor. See my doctor the next day and she sent be straight to the ER for fear of appendicitis. One day later, I had an appendectomy and was discharged later that day. I haven’t taken any pain meds post op either. Just sore and bruised up.

I’m about a week post surgery. I don’t remember eating too much that day but I did have a large order of Taco Bell nacho fries lol. I then took a nap with my fiancée and then I woke up to pain in my lower right abdomen. I was cautious with my movements and that night I decided to sleep it off and to not assume the worst just yet and hope it was just constipation. Well, I woke up the next day and the pain hadn’t left, it didn’t really get worse though. But because I limited my movements I didn’t want to leave my bed the whole day and by evening time I had my fiancée take me to the ER where it was revealed that I indeed had appendicitis. So far so good after a week of surgery (laparoscopic) and am hopeful to be fully recovered here soon! Hope y’all stay healthy! (:

Both my mom and dad has had appendicitis , where a tiny bit of food, being a part of the intestines, gets stuck and causes it to inflame and it causes severe pain and what happened with my dad was his exploded. But you have to get it surgically removed before it explodes. If it explodes they clean your insides out leaving a bigger scar.

I woke up this morning to discomfort on my right side. Later, the discomfort moved to my lower back. Hours later, discomfort moved back to my right side. Hoping its constipation, I tried to use the bathroom to see if the pain would go away. It subsided. 8 hours later, as I was leaving work, I felt an excruciating, sharp but kinda dull pain on my right side. Struggling to drive home, the pain finally subsided again. Prolly lasted about 20 minutes. Tried to sleep it off, hoping when I wake, it'll go away. I awoke. It's midnight. I don't feel any pain. But there is a lingering effect feeling on my right side. Started googling and searching on youtube, and now I'm here. As I'm writing, the pain came back. I shifted my body weight to my right side, and it feels okay at the moment. I'm afraid. But I'm hoping... hoping... but I'm afraid.😨 (if that made any sense.) I know I gotta have it checked out, but... I guess I'm just looking for a second opinion. I dont know 😢 or maybe I'm just stalling time. Whatever my case may be, I'm scared.

I had my appendix removed in early July 2016. I had pain on my right side a little bit over 24 hours. It was hard for me to walked because of the pain. I didn’t eat all day because of it. I did drank some water. I didn’t know that I had a fever because it was during the summer. My was gangrene. When I was in surgery for 3 hours. After I woke up in recovery room that for a second that I didn’t know where I was. I felt liked my old self after the surgery. I was a little bit weak. Even my mood was much better. I even joked to the nurses at the hospital.

One thing that happened to me was the pain mimicked ovulation pain---it started more as a back pain, which I was so used to, I ignored it. I even had a dressage lesson (riding horses) during what was an appendicitis attack, and it ruptured the next day(riding did not cause the rupture). The pain I had was like a gas pain behind my navel first, and lower back. Once it ruptured, it then moved to the lower right side and mother of god, that whole experience was the most pain I've had, and my pain threshold is very high. Upon diagnosis and surgery, the surgeon said my appendix ruptured with such force, it split in 2. Thank GOD I had a good surgeon and medical team, and I loathe antibiotics so the stuff they put me on ,while it made me so sick, it killed pretty much everything.

That little worm, though!!:D this was a really funny, cute video with all the little animations. Osmosis really helps to take away the nervousness and apprehension about learning medical concepts

I found this video especially amusing. I cackled (loudly) at "poop rock" and again at the pinworm's sneaky brow action. Great one, Osmosis!

This video is amazing for understanding the condition better. Thank you for that. The only thing that should've been mentioned is the fact that symptoms might vary from a person to a person because of some reasons. Other than that, truly a great video

I have appendicitis, It hurts to move, it's really annoying. not painful enough to cry but painful enough to not want to JUMP UP AND DOWN FOR THE 100 TIME! (i was forced to jump alot.) so don't kill your appendix!

Excellent video! But is there any altenative way of treating Appendicitis other than surgery?? Especially when it's in tenderness pain?

@michaelkasili 6 жыл бұрын

I had this about 13 years ago. My appendix burst and had an emergency surgery. I suspect it's all the gum and plastic I swallowed as a kid. All I recall was the pain...no word can describe it!

really good animation, it is also important to remark that there is also an antibiotic treatment in acute appendicitis, and shows resolution in a 70% of the cases

@@osmosis I had my appendix removed when I was nine and the pain from the appendicitis was so bad that I was screaming like I was being tortured in a horror movie. I was having copious amounts of blood work done and always had a sense of dread whenever the nurses entered my hospital room. Just recently, I learned from my mother that my appendix was so swollen and inflamed that had I waited another day to tell my grandma what was wrong with me; my appendix would have ruptured and I would be dead. Fortunately, I was hospitalized and put on an IV of antibiotics to stave off the possibility of my appendix rupturing. I understandably felt horrible after the surgery; but I eventually made a full recovery and I have been able to live my life without my appendix.
