Specializes in Pain Management

Medication problem: Anyone who has the remote chronic appendicitis should have that diagnosis made after the appendix is out and not still in. Probable mesenteric adenitis can be like an appendix pain , but your advil and or Premarin (conjugated estrogens) or adhesions from prior surgery could be the cause of the symptom.
