A member asked:

My 10 year old daughter is in the hospital right now for inflamed appendix byct surgeon says it is constipation causing the inflammation. this true?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Appendix: Not knowing all the facts of the case, medical findings, etc. It is impossible to render an opinion. The fact is she is in the right place, the hospital, and is being observed by a surgeon. It is always your prerogative to ask for another opinion if you have a question as to the care your daughter is being given. Your best bet would be to have your Pediatrician or FP consult with the Surgeon.
