Well, when the child's side(Right) hurts, and they get like a high fever, and it hurts too much for them to move, then these are the likely symptoms. Imidiatly take them to the hospital just in case!

∙ 11y agoMy daughter had appendicitis.First she had very severe abdominal pain, then vomiting. The symptoms seemed to go away for a day, then she had abdominal pain a couple days later, and had a fever. She was then diagnosed. It is different for everyone who suffers from this illness. Fevers are usually 99 to 103 degrees. Other symptoms include Nausea, constipation, painful urination, inability to pass gas, and others.
