Appendicitis is the inflammation of the appendix, a small pouch connected to the large intestine. Symptoms include sharp pain in the lower right abdomen, which can intensify and be accompanied by other symptoms like nausea and fever. Immediate medical intervention, usually surgery, is required. Now, imagine the added complexity when travelling with a history of appendicitis. Unfamiliar terrains, different healthcare standards, and the mere unpredictability of travel can make it daunting.
