The appendix is hooked on the the very end of the small intestine, just before the large intestine starts. If you are thinking appendicitis, you feel pain in the low right side of your abdomen. If you can press on your tummy there and it does not hurt too bad, but hurts when you release your 'press hold' you may have appendicitis. If you are worried, see your DR.
