A member asked:
I was wondering what are the common symptoms of appendicitus?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bad abdominal pain: Generally starts as vague abdominal ache around the umbilicus that progressively worsens and settles as severe pain in the right lower quadrant. Most patients loose their appetite and can experience nausea and vomiting. A physical exam by your physician can often make the diagnosis and this is often confirmed with a CT scan.
