Constant vs contract: Appendicitis is at first a generalized pain that starts in the peri umbilical area. As the appendix ruptures the pain may move from the right side groin area to the whole abdomen. Patients lay still because of pain. Labor pains are contractions of uterine muscle. They increase as a method for delivery of a baby and subside after delivery. Patients are moving constantly to try to get relief.
