Unusual symptoms of potentially deadly illness many of us get

A man suffering pain that appears to be in his back (Image: Getty) Appendicitis is a potentially deadly condition which occurs when the appendix - part of your digestive system - becomes infected, swollen or blocked. Without surgery the illness can rapidly become fatal, but most people are spotted quickly thanks to the common symptoms of a sharp pain, fever and vomiting. Doctors are warning though that there are some symptoms people should not ignore.

Almost 9% of men and 7% of women will suffer appendicitis during their lifetime - with pain in the lower right part of your abdomen the most common sign. But gastroenterologist Dr Supriya Rao told Huffington Post that constipation or diarrhoea can also be symptoms. The pain can also radiate away from the original site - becoming a back pain or a pain in your groin or rectum.
