Appendix is an organ in our body, which is connected to our large intestine but is a very small part. It looks like a thin pipe, but do you know how important it is to maintain our digestive power?
A thin pipe-like tube, the appendix is 2 to 3 inches long. Its function is to protect the good bacteria present in the intestines and also to increase the digestive power of the stomach.
When there is a lack of good bacteria in our body, the good bacteria present in the tube help the digestive system to run properly, but sometimes due to infection, the appendix becomes inflamed. In case of swelling, one starts complaining of pain in the lower abdomen, fever and vomiting.
Sometimes, when the situation becomes worse, this organ bursts internally and there is a danger of poison spreading in the stomach. In case of severe pain, doctor’s advice should be taken immediately, but to avoid such disease and in case of mild pain, Ayurvedic remedies can be taken.
