Hello,
With the question “Is it okay to have a hot stomach after 20 days of appendectomy? ", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Hot stomach according to the doctor's opinion: Hot in the epigastrium and full stomach. This problem is almost unrelated to postoperative laparoscopic appendicitis. You should have a follow-up visit for your surgeon to examine and advise you.
If you still have questions about hot stomach after appendectomy, you can go to the hospital of Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
