Can you get appendicitis by not pooping??

Question

i know this is an odd question, it's a bet with a friend. Does any one know how can you get appendicitis besides bacteria??? I looked it up and they said that p**p can get in your appendix. does this mean you don't p**p for like a week and you get appendicitis? any other ways you can get it?

Answer 1

Appendicitis most often results from blockage by f***s which has formed a stone (a fecalith) or, less commonly, from enlarged lymph nodes caused by a viral infection. Once a blockage occurs, bacteria located within the appendix grow. The pressure in the appendix increases and the appendix becomes swollen. Eventually the blood vessels to the appendix close and the appendix dies. Subsequent perforation will occur, allowing f***s to come in contact with other organs and placing you in danger of dying.

So, yes, 2 causes, but that blockage of f***s is coincidental, which means it just happened, it's not like if you hold your f***s for too long you will automatically develop appendicitis.
