Let me ask, my mother has appendicitis, but she went to the hospital for injections but did not go for definitive treatment. Since 2017 until now, I have only asked if I have been working far away or close to my mother, so I don't know if there are any signs of complications. Can the doctor give specific advice on my mother's case and how to deal with the pressure of appendicitis? Thank you doctor.
