How soon should surgery be performed after a diagnosis of an Appendicitis?

Surgery for appendicitis is typically recommended as soon as possible after the diagnosis is made. Delaying surgery can increase the risk of complications, including perforation of the appendix and infection of the abdominal cavity.

In most cases, surgery is performed within 24-48 hours of the diagnosis. However, the timing of surgery may vary depending on the individual's condition and the surgeon's preference. For example, surgery may be performed sooner if the person has a perforated appendix or if they are experiencing severe pain.
