Do an ultrasound abdomen and liver function blood tests, it is more likely to be fatty liver or hepatitis which mimics appendix pain, you need to stop alcohol totally, consult a psychiatrist.

1 month after surgery you need to be careful in lifting heavy weights, after that you can do your routine exercises and workout. As you are saying surgery was done last year, you can go ahead with your gym.

Hello post operative wound infection in a appendix case is common, it just needs regular dressings and antibiotic cover, and it should be okay by 1 or 2 weeks so nothing much to be worried off just leave a positive comment if useful.

If you have appendicitis you need to be assessed by a surgeon first. Only after that the mode of treatment (operative or non operative) can be ascertained.
Remember, if not treated properly appendicitis can be fatal.

Hi its unfortunate that you are still having pain at operated site.
However this a well known postop complication.
Do not panic
go back to your surgeon
a local examination. Analgesics and reassurance is all that yu need.
The pain should subside by 3 months.

Hi lybrate-user
appendicitis is common at your age
its still a clinical diagnosis.
Usg. Ct scan etc are only problem solving methods in case there is confusion on diagnosis.
Final diagnosis occurs only after operation
Interval appendicectomy or when your symptoms are not there is safe and sound
so go for it.
Its better to get it done than to land up with emergency pain abdomen.

No, appendix will not be formed once operated. But if in the first surgery the stump of the appendix left was too big then chances of stump appendicitis can occur. But this is a very rare thing to happen.
