Seven years after the appendix was cut, what is the pain?

In clinical practice, it is important to be alert to the occurrence of appendiceal stump infection when the appendix has been cut for seven years and still hurts. The main cause of appendiceal stump infection is that the root of the appendix is not completely cut out during the surgery. It is important to note that not only do patients experience pain, but they may also experience bloating, nausea, vomiting and other uncomfortable symptoms, and in some cases, even fever. Usually, if a patient develops appendiceal stump infection, anti-infection treatment must be intensified and another surgical excision must be performed. It is important to be aware of this situation during the appendectomy process to prevent unnecessary pain. If a patient has appendicitis, it is recommended that he or she be seen in a hospital and have an abdominal CT or colonoscopy done to determine if the patient has appendicitis. If the patient has appendicitis, anti-infective and surgical treatment should be actively given.
