Hello friend,
With the question "Is abdominal pain after 1 month of appendectomy dangerous?", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
Abdominal pain after laparoscopic appendectomy is the condition most patients are all encountered. In fact, after about 1-3 weeks, the patient can completely return to a normal life, but it also depends on the recovery of each person. Based on the described information, the doctor said that the outside of the skin is healed, but the inside is still in the process of healing. You should exercise, walk, play sports as usual to speed up the recovery process. In addition, you should visit Vinmec Health System for advice on post-operative recovery exercises.
If you still have questions about 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!
