Best Appendix Surgery in Bangalore
Dr. Bhushan Chittawadgi Provides the Best Appendix Surgery in Bangalore. Appendix removal surgery is also called an appendectomy. Appendectomy is the standard surgical treatment for appendicitis, a painful inflammation of the appendix. Because an inflamed appendix has the potential to rupture, appendicitis is considered a medical emergency. A ruptured appendix can be very dangerous. A healthy appendix, on the other hand, doesn’t
appear to have any essential function in the digestive system. If you have to have your appendix removed, you won’t miss it.
What is the appendix? The appendix is a small, tubular pouch that protrudes from the bottom of your colon, like a little tail. It’s about the length of your pointer finger. It’s located on the lower right side of your abdomen. (If you have appendicitis, you’ll feel the painful spot acutely.) Scientists don’t know the exact purpose of the appendix. There are theories, for example, it may be a place for your body to store certain beneficial gut bacteria. However, no one has ever observed any serious consequences from removing it.
Why is the appendix removed? In most cases, appendectomy is considered the safest treatment for appendicitis. There are a few exceptions, for example, some people might be unfit for surgery. Some people might respond to antibiotics alone if their appendicitis is uncomplicated and caught early enough. These people are at risk of recurrent appendicitis, however. Ultimately, the risk of rupture is much greater than the low risk associated with the surgery. If your appendix is inflamed enough to rupture, it’s safest to remove it.
Is appendectomy painful? During the surgery, you will be asleep under general anesthesia. Afterward, you will probably feel some moderate pain at the site of the incision(s). This should improve within a few days. Dr. Bhushan Chittawadgi can prescribe appropriate pain medication to help you manage during your recovery. Many people manage well without prescription pain medication, but you may use it for a few days.
Types of Appendectomy: Dr. Bhushan Chittawadgi may recommend one of two types of appendectomy procedures. They include: Open appendectomy: An open appendectomy involves creating a single, larger incision in the abdomen. Once the surgeon makes the incision, they pull out the appendix and then seal the incision. Laparoscopic appendectomy: A generally less invasive procedure, a laparoscopic appendectomy involves the surgeon making about 3 small incisions into the abdomen. They then guide a small tube with a camera into the abdomen and use a screen to guide them as they remove the appendix. The surgical team closes the wounds once the
doctor removes the appendix. Both procedures require recovery in the hospital and additional recovery time at home.
Do's and Don’ts to follow after an Appendectomy: Do’s : Keep your incision(s) clean and dry to prevent infection. Eat soft foods until your bowels can tolerate more solid foods. Take it slow. Limit your physical activity. If you had open surgery, your abdominal muscles may ache after standing too long. Call your doctor if you notice any strange symptoms. Don’t : Take medication that your doctor hasn’t approved. Some pain medications may cause you to bleed more easily. Bathe except as directed. Don’t go swimming until your stitches are removed. Strain your abdominal muscles. Avoid stair climbing and lifting heavy objects. Be completely sedentary. It’s important to get up and walk around now and then to prevent blood clots and encourage your digestive system along.
