APPENDICITIS

Appendicitis is a condition in which the appendix becomes swollen, inflamed, and filled with pus. The appendix is a small pouch shaped like a small finger. It is on the right side of the abdomen, connected to the colon. 

Experts are not sure what the appendix is for. Charles Darwin wondered whether it might have been an organ our ancestors used to digest plants. Recent studies indicate that the appendix may be a dedicated environment for friendly bacteria which facilitate digestion and fight infection.

Appendicitis generally affects people aged between 10 and 30, but it can strike at any age.

What causes appendicitis?

I know most of you have been told by your parents or other grown-ups at one point in your childhood not to run around right after a meal. They say that the food will get into your appendix and you’ll get appendicitis.

So is this true or is it just something parents tell you so that you’ll behave after eating?

Well, this one ain’t true! Running or jumping around after a meal will not cause appendicitis. Just a brief tidbit, the appendix is a small, useless tube of tissue that extends from the large intestine. Appendicitis is caused by an inflammation of your appendix which is usually due to feces or growth clogging and infecting it.

If left untreated, it might burst and spread the infection to the surrounding organs. Usually if you have it, you will feel an unusual pain from your belly button moving to the lower right side of your abdomen and it gets worse in a few hours.

But running around after a meal won’t cause feces to shoot into your appendix and block it. Although, you could get an upset stomach or might puke if you do that. Remember when you just had that burger and fries meal right before riding a roller coaster? Hehehe.

        Experts believe there are two likely causes:

• Infection - a stomach infection may have found its way to the appendix.


• Obstruction - a hard piece of stool may have got trapped in the appendix. The bacteria in the trapped stool may then have infected the appendix.

  What are the symptoms of appendicitis?

  Initially, some pain can be felt anywhere in the stomach area, but later, as it intensifies, its location becomes more defined in the lower right-hand side of the abdomen - an area known as McBurney point.
  
  The following symptoms are common:
• Progressively worsening pain
• Coughing or sneezing is painful
• Nausea
• Vomiting
• Diarrhea
• Inability to pass gas (break wind, fart)
• Fever
• Constipation
• Loss of appetite

PREVENTION and NATURAL TREATMENT

FIBERICH

Countries with lower incidences of appendicitis also tend to have more fiber in their people's diets, compared to other countries. It would therefore be logical to assume that a high fiber diet which found in FIBERICH may help reduce your chances of developing appendicitis. 

 One theory is that with a high fiber diet the resulting softer stools are less likely to get trapped in the appendix.
