Appendicitis Diagnosis by Doctors

Need to have a blood test to find out how many white blood cells you have. White blood cells can help doctors figure out if you have an infection or inflammation.

The doctor may want you to do a urinalysis to make sure that a kidney stone or urinary tract infection is not causing you any pain or discomfort.

If you are having a lot of pain or discomfort, you might need an abdominal x-ray. This test will help doctors see if you have appendicitis or any other problems.

Ultrasound is another type of imaging test that uses sound waves to make pictures of the inside of your abdomen and pelvic region. This test can help the doctor look for inflammation, abscess formation and other problems with your appendix.
