Introduction: Appendicitis Is a Surgical Emergency — Never Ignore It
Appendicitis is one of the most common abdominal emergencies. Pain usually starts near the navel, then shifts to the lower right abdomen. If untreated, the appendix can burst — causing severe infection or even death.
The most effective, safest treatment is Laparoscopic Appendicectomy, which removes the inflamed appendix through tiny keyhole incisions.
At BariOSS Clinic, Tirunelveli, Dr. Christopher S.K. performs advanced laparoscopic and robotic appendix surgery with rapid recovery and minimal pain.
