The appendix is located typically in the lower right quadrant. At the front of your abdomen, place your right hand on the right side of you abdomen with your belly button in the bend of your thumb and index finger. Keeping your palm in place, spread your fingers. Roughly where your pinky ends up is where you'll find your appendix.
