Chronic appendicitis can be dangerous. Chronic appendicitis is caused by blockage of the appendiceal lumen and bacterial invasion, and patients may experience recurrent pain in the right lower abdomen, nausea, and vomiting. When chronic appendicitis has an acute attack, the appendix may become septic or even perforated, triggering diffuse peritonitis, which may be life-threatening. Therefore, patients diagnosed with chronic appendicitis should undergo timely surgical treatment to remove the appendix to prevent the inflammation from spreading and causing complications. Common surgical treatments include laparoscopic appendectomy. At the same time, patients should avoid spicy and irritating foods as well as foods that cause flatulence in their daily life. It is recommended that patients suffering from chronic appendicitis should go to the hospital in a timely manner and take appropriate treatment under the guidance of the doctor in order to avoid delaying the condition.
