Why fast for appendicitis?

Patients with appendicitis need to fast because eating during the illness may cause abdominal pain symptoms or cause abdominal pain to worsen. If conservative treatment is used during the illness, eating may increase gastrointestinal motility, which is not conducive to the stability of the disease. In addition, if the patient is undergoing surgery, the patient needs to use anesthetic drugs during surgery. Fasting is also required if gastrointestinal function is not fully restored after surgery. At least after the anus recovery exhaust can properly eat liquid food, such as rice soup, fruit juice, etc.
