1. Abdominal pain is the most common symptom. The characteristic of appendicitis abdominal pain is migratory abdominal pain, which means that the pain starts in the upper abdomen around the umbilicus, and after a few hours or half a day, the pain moves to the right lower abdomen. The pain is usually persistent and may be aggravated in paroxysms. The child often lies on his side with his right leg bent, and dares not walk with his back straight. The baby often expresses abdominal pain by crying in paroxysms. The child often lies in bed and dares not move or groans and refuses to eat.

Some symptoms of appendicitis may be atypical, which is more common in young children. Because young children cannot cooperate with the examination, it is easy to be misdiagnosed. For example, if it only manifests as diarrhea at the beginning, it is often thought to be enteritis. If there is some cough and congestion in the pharynx at the same time, it is easy to diagnose upper respiratory tract infection or tonsillitis. Young children have low resistance, and appendicitis is easy to perforate and cause peritonitis. Therefore, any child with abdominal pain or crying for more than 2-3 hours should go to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment immediately.
