Suggest Treatment For Severe Symptoms Of Appendicitis After Appendix Is Removed
I ve had appendicitis and had my appendix removed about 7 months ago but i keep getting the same symptoms but 10 times worse than the first time i had it, my doctor who took my appendix out told me there was a very low chance of getting stump appendicitis but it does rarely occur, could this be the reason for my pain?

Hi,
I would suggest to get MRI of the region to differentiate between stump appendicitis from abscess at the operation site, tubo ovarian mass (in case of female). An exact diagnosis would indicate specific treatment (medicinal or surgical).
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
