The Myth That Spicy Food Can Predict Bowel Disease

Bone bowel disease is an inflammation of the appendix, which is caused by a blockage of the bowel, causing a disruption in the flow of the colon, resulting in swelling, infection and severe pain that requires surgical intervention. A broken bowel can be life-threatening, so an urgent surgery is needed.

2. Laparoscopic apendicectomy.
