APPENDIX IS ON RIGHT SIDE OF BODY. IT MAY BE FUNGAL(YEAST) INFECTION, NO RELATION WITH YOUR OPERATION. APPLY CLOTRIMAZOLE OR MICANAZOLE OR TERBINAFINE CREAM TWICE A DAY. AVOID EXCESSIVE SWEATING ,HUMID,HOT. FOR ITCHING TAKE BENADRYL. CHANGE UNDERGARMENTS TWICE A DAY. USE ONLY COTTON UNDERGARMENTS,NO SYNTHETIC. TAKE BATH TWICE A DAY. KEEP THE BODY DRY. CONSULT DOCTOR TO CONFIRM THE DIAGNOSIS & FOR ORAL ANTI FUNGAL MEDICINES E.g; TABLET TERBINAFINE,GRISEOFULVIN, FLUCANAZOLE, ITRACONAZOLE.
