A member asked:
Can you have pain in the appendix area by spells before it becomes acute with appendicitis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
This could happen, but it's uncommon. The your age is shown correctly, appendicitis is very rare, but there are other much more common (and equally serious) causes of low abdominal pain, such as diverticulitis and other problems. Get in touch with your doctor soon. Good luck.
