A member asked:
What does ''sub-acute'' appendicitis means?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sub-acute Appendix: Usually, appendicitis is an acute event which develops suddenly and progresses rapidly. In subacute appendicitis, the onset is not as intense. Sub-acute appendicitis may actually get better on its own resulting in a chronic inflammation of the appendix.
