Is it possible to cause stress on a place your worried about ? for example can i cause stress on my appendix area if i worry about it to much ?

Unlikely: There is an old saying that the "mind is more powerful than the body.' however, it is not possible for you to stress about your appendix and cause an problem with your appendix. However, stress can have other adverse effects on your health. A better question to ask is why you are stressed out and what can you do to resolve these feelings.
