Appendicitis is divided into acute appendicitis and chronic appendicitis. In case of acute appendicitis, surgery is required in a timely manner. Without surgery, infection, suppuration, perforation and gangrene may occur, which will further aggravate the patient’s infection and even sepsis and life-threatening infectious shock. In case of chronic appendicitis, conservative treatment can be considered by applying antibiotics, taking some oral herbal medicines to clear heat and detoxify the toxin, and also with the therapy of diet, eating more vegetables and fruits and less spicy and stimulating food, which can also be clinically cured. However, chronic appendicitis has a tendency to recur, and once chronic appendicitis recurs and turns into acute appendicitis, surgery is still needed.
