My sis just had an appendectomy last week and she's in her first trimester, the surgery was successful but she's recently been experiencing sharp pain?

Need hospital review: She needs to be checked out at the Emergency Department as pain after operation might be due to few problems, some of them might be life threatening to her or to the baby. Please seek medical advise urgently
