in medicine,what does Rovsing's sign indicate
Rovsing's sign is a clinical test used in the diagnosis of appendicitis. It is positive when pain is elicited in the right lower quadrant of the abdomen upon palpation of the left lower quadrant. This occurs due to the irritation of the peritoneum, suggesting that the inflamed appendix may be causing referred pain. A positive Rovsing's sign, along with other clinical findings, can aid in confirming appendicitis in a patient.
