Answer
Hello, the doctor would like to answer the question: “Is there any medicine to help reduce the pain of appendicitis? ” as follows:
Your case may be a symptom of chronic pain at the incision caused by damage to the small sensory nerves in the skin at the incision, usually in cases of pathological scarring such as keloids, hypertrophic scars. Most oral or topical medications only have temporary pain relief, you can combine daily massage of the surgical scar area to reduce symptoms, but you should see a plastic surgeon for advice. more specific.
If you still have questions about chronic pain in the incision, you can go to the hospital of Vinmec Health System for examination. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
