Appendicitis is a common condition that occurs when the appendix becomes inflamed or infected. This condition may cause great pain at the lower right side of the abdomen and often requires surgical removal of the entire appendix to ensure treatment is successful.
Appendicitis can happen to anyone and the symptoms may not always be an indicative sign that something is amiss. However, if the appendix should burst, pus and infected material will leak into the abdomen. This can cause an infection of the abdominal cavity known as peritonitis, a life-threatening condition.
At G&L Surgical, we understand the concerns that often arise when dealing with appendicitis and we endeavour to support you in your recovery.
Our team at G&L Surgical strives to be transparent in our fees and charges, so that you can have the financial counselling necessary before getting your appendectomy.
