My friend was infected with corona virus and at the same time also happened to have appendicitis so I want to know that can appendicitis also happen because of cavity 19 like if someone is infected with corona virus can they develop appendicitis because of it, cause I read that appendicitis happens when the appendix is infected and the infection can happen because of a foreign body and the corona virus would be a foreign body to the body so can appendicitis happen as body's reaction to corona virus. I want to know in my friend's case were they linked or not.
