A member asked:
Legs and back pain, do i have appendicitis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Most Likely Not!: Appendicitis gives belly pain and usually fever. Within about 25 hours the appendix will rupture and spread infection around your belly. You would then be very, very sick. Back ; leg pain are either from muscles or an irritated nerve coming out from your lower spine. This can cause symptoms on and off for a long time.
