A member asked:
Can appendicitis pain come and go or is it constant?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pain from acute: Appendicitis is usually constant and severe. Some doctors believe there is a chronic and relapsing form of appendicitis, in which case the pain can be intermittent. Appendicitis pain is usually not like intestinal cramping that comes every few minutes.
