Is it true that you can get appendicitis if you run after you eat?
15 doctors weighed in across 4 answers
No: Appendicitis occurs when something blocks the lumen of the appendix causing bacteria to over grow and lead to localized infection.

No: Of running after you eat causes constipation then possibly yes. The incidence of appendicitis is higher in patients prone to constipation.
