Can appendicitis correct itself or is surgery always required?
While rare or uncommon, yes, there have been cases of chronic or recurrent appendicitis that didn't require surgery. However, due to the fact that those two types of appendicitis are uncommon and appendicitis can be fatal if left unchecked, I'd definitely advice one who has any of the symptoms associated with appendicitis or is concerned they may have appendicitis, to see their health care provider as soon as possible.

How soon should surgery be performed after a diagnosis of an Appendicitis?
This is very individual. Each case must be evaluated seperatly.The surgeon combines information from clinical investigation, lab results and imaging before deciding what to do. A generally accepted method is the Alvarado score, where a score of 9+/10 means surgery, 7-8 means you can (but don't have to) wait, less than 6 means it isn't an appendicitis. Once the diagnosis of appendicitis is confirmed, patients are usually operated as soon as it can be arranged (when the OR is free). An appendicitis is not an extremely urgent matter though, so if needed, it can wait up to 24 hours (though the waiting time may not be comfortable for the patient).
