Treatments

Epiploic appendagitis does not require any medical intervention such as antibiotic treatment or surgery. The pain however can be quite severe and be treated with anesthetics (pain killers). The condition should improve between 4 to 14 days, but many patients saw significant improvement within 7 days. If the condition does not improve, and the pain persists, or a secondary symptom occurs, one should seek medical attention immediately as more serious condition may be present.
