On the question of purulent appendicitis

If we allow ourselves to look back at the relatively recent period of urban and rural medicine, dating back to the mid-80s, we will see that the treatment of purulent appendicitis in many regions of Russia was practiced in approximately the following form. At that time, a patient with suspected purulent appendicitis was kept in bed on the strictest diet for at least 1% -2 months, applying topically first ice and then heat, and patiently waited until the abscess matured and until superficial skin fluctuation appeared. and then the abscess, ready to open up on its own, was already cut.
