How do you know if its your appendix or just a tummy ache?
If you have a bad appendix, then the pain will usually be in the very lower right side of the abdomen, although the pain may be near the belly button or even in the lower back. A burst appendix can be a serious matter, so you should see a doctor if the pain persists. If you have a fever as well as the pain, you need to head to the emergency room as your appendix may have burst causing an infection. Usually when you have a tummy bug or tummy ache the pain stays in the middle, but with appendicitis, the pain becomes extremely painful and moves towards the side of your tummy. Very painful tummy aches should immediately be checked out by a physician or better, at the hospital because there may be a chance your appendix is bursting. When it bursts a sort of fluid flows out and it can cause infection. In more severe cases it causes death. Just like Houdini who died of his appendix bursting.
Can you die from appendicitis?
Yes it can. The appendix is a small vestigial single ended pouch which is attached to the intestine. Modern humans don't need this pouch and normally if it causes any issues it is routinely removed by an incision in the lower abdominal region. Technically speaking appendicitis doesn't kill you since it is the swelling of the appendix, however if the appendix gets to the point where it swells sufficiently enough to rupture then this is called peritonitis and can cause blood poisoning and other complications by spilling the contents of the intestines into the body cavity. The appendix can be inflamed but not enough to cause issues and this can last a lifetime without serious danger of death (However for safety most Doctors would recommend removal). This is called a "Rumbling appendix".
