Early Appendicitis Symptoms
You get appendicitis when your appendix is inflamed. One of the causes for appendicitis is when a thick mucus hardens and blocks the opening to the caecum. The caecum is the first portion of the large bowel located in the lower part of the abdomen. It receives fecal matter from the ileum or small bowel. Another cause for appendicitis is the swelling of the lymphatic tissue. The early symptoms of appendicitis are abdominal pain, loss of appetite, nausea, and vomiting.
