A member asked:
How long will it take for your appendix to start hurting a lot after having the early simptoms of appendicitis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
12-36 hours: Once appendicitis begins, the vague discomfort which usually starts about the umbilicus becomes more severe and targeted to the right lower quadrant in 12-36 hours, usually 12-16 hours. Loss of appetite, nausea, and fever are also common. If this pattern develops you need to get to a medical facility. Good luck.
