A member asked:
If i was to suffer from chronic appendicities how would my stools look ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No relationship: Stool color and quality is largely independent from the appendix. Appendicitis whether chronic or acute should be addressed surgically. Okay to talk to your doctor about ALL of your symptoms. Okay to ask for a surgery consultation. Take family with you. Be well.
