Understanding Appendicitis

Appendicitis is inflammation of the appendix — a small finger-shaped organ attached to the large intestine. It is one of the most common surgical emergencies. Symptoms include sudden severe pain starting around the navel that moves to the lower right abdomen, nausea, vomiting, fever, and loss of appetite. If left untreated, the appendix can rupture causing a life-threatening infection.

At Chahal Hospital in Bathinda, Dr. J.S. Chahal performs laparoscopic appendectomy — removing the inflamed appendix through 3 tiny incisions. This minimally invasive approach means less pain, faster recovery, smaller scars, and lower infection risk compared to open surgery. Most patients are discharged within 1-2 days and return to normal activities in 1-2 weeks.
