Can acute appendicitis be treated with analgesics?

Acute appendicitis typically requires surgical intervention, such as an appendectomy, rather than just treatment with analgesics. While analgesics can help manage pain associated with the condition, they do not address the underlying issue and may potentially mask symptoms, delaying diagnosis and treatment. In some cases, non-operative management with antibiotics may be considered, but this is not the standard treatment for all cases of appendicitis. Therefore, relying solely on analgesics is not an appropriate approach for acute appendicitis.
