What is the symptoms of appendicitis?



Answer:    Pains in your stomach... sometime they can begin in the middle of your stomach (like a stomach ache), and move too your right side.
Headaches are a symptom, but not everyone gets them when they get appendicitis! ... if you begin vomiting egg-yolk/white stuff... go to doctor IMMEDIATLY..
Symptoms

The symptoms of appendicitis vary. It can be hard to diagnosis appendicitis in young children, the elderly, and women of childbearing age.

Typically, the first symptom is pain around your navel. (See: abdominal pain.) The pain initially may be vague, but becomes increasingly sharp and severe. You may have reduced appetite, nausea, vomiting, and a low-grade fever.

As the inflammation in the appendix increases, the pain tends to move into your right lower abdomen and focuses directly above the appendix at a place called McBurney's point.

If the appendix ruptures, the pain may lessen briefly and you may feel better. However, once peritonitis sets in, the pain worsens and you become sicker.

Abdominal pain may be worse when walking or coughing. You may prefer to lie still because sudden movement causes pain.

Later symptoms include:

Fever
Loss of appetite
Nausea
Vomiting
Constipation
Diarrhea
Chills and shaking

Sharp pains to the area just above your right hip bone may be the causes of this. Often if the area is pushed you will feel pain after the pressure is released. Nausea often is associated too. Appendicitis comes around in a virus type thing believe it or not. I live in a small country town and if someone has appendicitis there are cases that follow. The doctor has also told me when I was admitted for this that it was unlikely because no one else had complained about having it also...
Hope it helps :) sharp (stabbing) pains on your right side, sometimes on the left too.
fever, loss of appetite, feeling sick like you want to vomit.

Get to a Dr coz it could burst and the toxins will get in your blood stream and you can die.

the appendix is a little "thing" that comes off the large intestine...and serves no real purpose. waste usually flows straight passed, and the mucous from within the appendix usually keeps it clean. Appendicitis is when it gets inflammed..
well you will have serious pains on the right side, below your ribcage. you could feel dizzy and your stomach may feel very bloated. go to a doctor immediately and get checked cause you don't want it to explode. you will feel strong pain, to hard stand, pain in stomach, warm, feel pain when you touch your right stomach. visit your doctor, take pain killer, antibiotic...and follow your doctor instruction.
if you have sharp pains in ur right side and feel like you can't really move around and yea...
