If you have any pain that you suspect may be worse than just a simple tummy upset, you should be seeking medical help especially if you think it may be appendicitis. Rupture of the appendix can be life-threatening and appendicitis can rapidly progress to this in a few hours. Pain is usually widespread at this stage. Earlier pain is generalized or may be in the lower right abdomen. Don't mess with this problem or self-diagnose. See a doctor.

The normal treatment for appendicitis is to surgically remove the appendix, and once it has been removed, obviously it can no longer burst.
a burst appendix will release dangerous toxins into your blood system & is potentially very dangerous. The appendix is a small corner of your intestine & the inflamation that leads to burst appendix is usually caused by trapped old digested food so you can imagine the bacteria & toxins in really old food not good!
I hope that my appendix does not burst otherwise bacteria will spill into my body.
