Your appendix is located in the lower right abdomen. You will feel a sharp pain in that area. You may also have a fever.

I dont know exacttly what an apendix does, but when my moms burst she couldnt move at all and she was in an imense amount of pain. They just took it out, so it must not be something that is absolutely necessary to the human body.
Draw an imaginary diagonal line from your belly button to your right pelvic bone. Press in the center of this line. If it hurts, it's likely your appendix.
Many people suffering from appedicitis have referred pain in the area of their belly button.
It's in the lower right side of your abdomen. Symptoms of appendicitis may include:
pain in the abdomen, first around the belly button, then moving to the lower right area
loss of appetite
nausea
vomiting
constipation or diarrhea
inability to pass gas
low fever that begins after other symptoms
abdominal swelling
Not everyone with appendicitis has all the symptoms. The pain intensifies and worsens when moving, taking deep breaths, coughing, or sneezing. The area becomes very tender. People may have a sensation called "downward urge," also known as "tenesmus," which is the feeling that a bowel movement will relieve their discomfort. Laxatives and pain medications should not be taken in this situation. Anyone with these symptoms needs to see a qualified physician immediately.

The appendix is near the junction of the small intestines and large intestines.
the appendix is located at the lower right quadrant of the abdomen.
The main symptom of appendicitis is belly pain. You first may feel pain near your belly button. Then it moves to the lower right side of your belly. The pain gets worse if you move, walk, or cough. You also may have a fever, feel like you are going to throw up, or not want to eat. If you have these symptoms, call your doctor right away.
It is extremely painful and if you have symptoms like this call your doctor immediately or go to the ER. Most people cannot stand upright when they have appendicitis. The appendix needs to be removed immediately.
Your appendix is located on the right hand side of your body in your abdomen.
Your appendix is in your lower right abdomen.. An appendix is there for when you eat greasy foods, it helps to filter grease and fat. If you were getting an attack here (if it bust) you would get sharp pains in your lower right abdomen, like if you were having an attack right now you wouldn't be able to type; you'd be on the floor crying.
It's on a loop of your small intestine, on the right side, just below your ribs, deep inside. High fever and a sharp pain, ache or tenderness in your side are signs. You need a doctor to look at you to know for sure. If you really think that's what's wrong, you should probably go to the emergency room, because a badly infected, ruptured appendix can kill you.
Lower right hand side. When I had mine removed i did not realize it was about to burst. I had lot of vomiting, and just felt like I had the flu.
