Abdominal pain: Signs & symptoms of appendicitis include abdominal pain, that often starts generalized, then localizes to the right lower quadrant; nausea, sometimes with vomiting; and fever. It can, however, look different. If you are really worried, see your dr.

Early or late?: Early may be non specific signs. Mild upper abd discomfort on exam. Later can be fever, dehydration from vomiting or diarrhea, rapid heart rate, pain in right lower quadrant of abdomen, "rebound" tenderness (hurts worse after pressing in ), with heel drop, bringing right knee to chest, stretching it out, tenderness on rectal exam. Thinking maybe? See a doc now!

Appendicitis: PAIN! If you have pain near your appendix you must go immediately to the nearest Emergency facility. If they agree that you have appendicitis you will be sent to a surgeon. Hope all goes well.
