Some basics: The appendix sits next to the big muscle that moves your right leg forward. If it is inflamed you have pain in the lower right abdomen & often cannot walk standing upright. If jumping up/down on your right leg produces a lot of pain it might be appendix. Urinalysis is often done before surgery as a UTI can rarely mimic the belly pain similar to appendicitis.
