What to Do and Not To Do in Appendicitis
There is no oouassion for panic in the presence of appendicitis. There should be time to observe and study the affliction, in order ‘to be sure of the diagnosis. For the only treatment of appendicitis is the surgical removal of the appendix, and usually the time at which this should be done is counted in hours rather than minutes. As a rule, appendicitis begins with discomfort in the upper por-
ttion of the abdomen, and frequently with nausea and vomiting. After a period of a few Bours, the distress be- pro, gins to localize in the lower right portion of 3 the abdomen i and becomes fairly constant and definitely located at a point in the middle of a line drawn between : ES the navel and what is called DF Masters the anterior-superior spine at the edge of, the pelvis ‘(sometimes misnamed the hip-bone.) , With the localization of : the pain in this region, one can frequently detect involuntary resistance on the part of the abdominal muscles to pressure applied through the fingers—as if the. muscles were protecting ‘the sore Spot. By the time the discomfort has localized, there is usually present one or one-and-a-half degrees ‘of fever. When these symptoms have be-

The least result of such an aection is increased discomfort; the serious effect of it is to induct a perforation of the appendix and the grave consequence of peritonitis. iE Under no circumstances should a laxative or cathartic be given

pain remotely resembling that described above. Because of the necessity for making a definite diagnosis in appendicitis, no medication should be given that might in any way mask the symptoms. When this sequence of symptoms—pain moving from the pit of the stomach to. the lower right section of the
| abdomen, or to the right flank—
appears in the presence of lowgrade temperature, one should seek competent medical care. It has been a popular procedure to apply cold. packs to the affect-

appendicitis really exists, neither cold nor hot packs accomplish anything, The appendix is a small appendage, somewhat smaller in diameter than the little finger, and of the same length or a little longer, ‘having’ its origin at the commencement of the large bowel in
