Can abdominal pain that feels like gas actually be appendicitis?
Appendicitis often starts near the belly button and may move towards the lower-right abdomen. The pain can worsen over hours, particularly while walking or coughing.
Watch for these additional warning signs:
1. Persistent or worsening abdominal pain
2. Nausea
3. Vomiting
4. Fever
5. Loss of appetite
Symptoms vary. Never use a video or online symptom checklist to diagnose appendicitis.
Severe abdominal pain requires immediate emergency care.
