How did people cure appendicitis without surgery?

Diet and prayer: Excellent question! appendicitis was only first described in 1886. Since then we've done a remarkably good job of teaching people about appendectomy. In truth most people with appendicitis probably got better on their own. For more look at my website. www.appendicitis.pro.

Years ago....: A lot of them died - and i mean a century ago or so. If i was born 100 years ago i would probably never lived to see my tenth birthday. My appendix ruptured as it was being removed. I spent at least 10 days in the hospital and three of those in isolation due to a post-op infection. The inflammation can come and go, but if it gets too bad - get it removed!
