It has an approximate incidence of 233 per 100,000 people. This is a case of a 7-year-old boy diagnosed with appendicitis and suggested appendicectomy by the modern fraternity. His parents were reluctant to do surgery and took him to our Outpatient Department (OPD). The appendix was distended with a diameter of 7.3 mm in the Ultra Sono Graphy (USG) report. After detailed evaluation and dosha dushya assessment, the treatment adopted was that of Pitta Kapha Gulma and Antar vidradhi and given OP-level treatment. Pathya ahara (appropriate diet regimen) was strictly advised along with medicines. After one month of treatment, the size of the appendix was reduced to 5.3 mm. The medicines were discontinued and Charngeryadi ghrita was given for 2 months. The patient was completely recovered, and no recurrence has been observed.
