An appendectomy is the surgical removal of the appendix and is a common emergency surgery which is performed to treat appendicitis that is an inflammatory condition of the appendix.
The appendix is a small, tube-shaped pouch that is attached to the large intestine and is located on the lower right side of the abdomen. The exact purpose of the appendix is still not known. When bacteria affect and multiply inside the organ it leads to the formation of pus causing the appendix to become swollen. This buildup of bacteria and pus can cause pain around the belly which gradually spreads to the lower right section of the abdomen and the pain is persistent and often gets worse.
It is important to note here that the body can still function properly even without an appendix.
