Appendicitis can cause vomiting. An acute appendicitis attack presents with distinct symptoms such as severe abdominal pain, high fever, nausea, and vomiting. The main reason is the inflammation of the appendix lumen, which reflexively causes vomiting. For appendicitis, once diagnosed, surgery is generally required. Currently, there are two surgical approaches: laparoscopic appendectomy and appendectomy via McBurney's point. Laparoscopic appendectomy is more common and involves less intraoperative bleeding and faster postoperative recovery. Postoperatively, it is important to enhance nursing care by eating more vegetables, drinking plenty of water, and ensuring that stools are softened.
