Appendicitis is a common gastrointestinal disease in clinical medicine, and it has many causes. The main symptom is pain in the lower right abdomen, and sometimes there are various symptoms such as fever and vomiting. If the early appendicitis is not too serious, intravenous drip treatment can be used, which is generally curable. If appendicitis has already become purulent, surgery is required. Generally, appendicitis cannot be distinguished between men and women. Both can get it, so we should pay attention to diet control in daily life. Let's follow the editor to learn about it. What should women pay attention to when they have appendicitis? Women with appendicitis should pay attention to distinguishing it from gynecological diseases in diagnosis. For example, right ovarian cyst pedicle torsion, right ectopic pregnancy rupture and other conditions may also cause right lower abdominal pain, which should be further distinguished by combined corresponding examinations. For example, when ectopic pregnancy ruptures, the patient has a history of amenorrhea, HCG is positive, and there are symptoms of excessive blood loss. In addition, during pregnancy, the pain site of female appendicitis is not necessarily in the right lower abdomen, but may shift to the right upper abdomen or even under the ribs. It should be noted that if women with chronic appendicitis need surgical treatment, it is best to avoid the menstrual period. What are the symptoms of appendicitis in girls? 1. Abdominal pain: Typical acute appendicitis has pain in the upper abdomen or around the umbilicus in the early stage. After a few hours, the abdominal pain migrates and fixes in the right lower abdomen. When the inflammation spreads to the serosa and retroperitoneum, the pain is fixed in the right lower abdomen, and the original upper abdominal or periumbilical pain is relieved or disappears. Therefore, a history of right lower abdominal pain without typical metastatic cancer cannot be excluded as acute appendicitis. 2. Simple appendicitis often presents with paroxysmal or persistent swelling and dull pain. Persistent severe pain usually indicates purulent or gangrenous appendicitis. Continuous severe pain that spreads to the middle or lower abdomen, often with signs of a gangrenous appendix rupture. 3. Gastrointestinal symptoms The gastrointestinal symptoms of simple appendicitis are not obvious. In the early stages, you may experience nausea, vomiting, and vomiting due to reflex gastric spasm. Pelvic appendicitis or gangrenous appendix rupture may cause increased bowel movement frequency. 4. The fever is usually only low-grade, without chills, and the temperature of purulent appendicitis generally does not exceed 38°C. High fever is common in appendix gangrene, rupture, or peritonitis. 5. Abdominal muscle tension and appendicitis suppuration have this clinical symptom, and abdominal muscle tension is particularly obvious when gangrene perforation is high and peritonitis is complicated. However, the abdominal muscles of the elderly or obese patients are weak, so the contralateral abdominal muscles must be checked for comparison. Among the symptoms of appendicitis in girls, there is also a kind of chronic appendicitis which is also very common. For the treatment of chronic appendicitis, we should adopt corresponding treatment methods based on the patient's specific physical constitution. The choice of medicine is also very important, and medicines that the patient is not likely to be allergic to should be selected for treatment. If purulent appendicitis is found, you must go to the hospital for surgery as soon as possible. |
