Infection, a foreign body, or poop can cause a blockage of the appendix. Appendicitis or inflammation of
the appendix is the result of this blockage. Though Appendicitis can happen at any age, it is likely seen in

delaying the treatment can worsen the problem!

What are the solutions provided by the

gastroenterologist in Pune to treat Appendicitis?
The treatment option usually used to treat Appendicitis is surgery! After Appendicitis has been
diagnosed, our gastroenterologist immediately performs surgery to remove the appendix as delaying the
surgery can cause rupture of the appendix and other serious complications. The surgery performed to
remove the appendix is called an appendectomy.

How is an appendectomy performed?

You will be given antibiotics before removing the appendix to fight the infection. The appendectomy
procedure is performed under general anesthesia. So, you will first be given general anesthesia, which
will keep you unconscious during the procedure.  WhatsApp us
 Our gastroenterologist then removes your appendix through a four-inch-long cut or with a device known
as a laparoscope. This procedure of using a laparoscope is known as  laparoscopy. In case you have
peritonitis, our surgeon will also clean out your belly and drain the pus.

Other than surgery, antibiotics can also help treat Appendicitis in some cases.

What are the risks associated with appendectomy

surgery?
Though rare, some of the risks and side effects of appendectomy are as follows-

Frequent vomiting
Severe pain in the belly
Fever
Inflammation of the wound
Blood in your urine

If you notice any of the above side effects, seek immediate help from your doctor in Pune. You can avoid
the risks by getting the surgery done by the top gastroenterologist in Pune.

How long does it take to recover from an

appendectomy?
You can get up and move around within twelve hours after appendectomy surgery. You can resume your
normal activities in two to three weeks. In the case of laparoscopy, the recovery is quicker!

As the saying goes,” Prevention is better than cure”!

So, is there any way to prevent Appendicitis?

Unfortunately, there is no way that can help prevent Appendicitis. But one can reduce the risks of
Appendicitis by eating foods rich in fiber like vegetables and fruits.

Conclusion
Are you suffering from Appendicitis?

Relax! Though the name of the problem is complex, and the problem is also complex, it is not without a
solution!

One can treat Appendicitis and avoid it from worsening by getting treatment for it immediately!
