1. right lower side of the small intestine where it meets the large intestine(stomach). if you want to know more about the symptoms and possible problems you can get from the appendix go to: http://kidshealth.org/parent/infections/stomach/appendicitis.html
2. Left side, out from the navel
3. It's a little organ that has no real function in the body that is attached to the lower right portion of your intestines.
4. Most people have their appendix on the right side, however, some people have it on the left. What I think you are actually asking deals with the fact that due to the poor nerve configuration in the lower abdomen, people perceive to feel an infected appendix on the opposite side of the body cavity than it actually is located. Steve Sample ========================================================= Your appendix is in the right lower quadrant of your abdomen. It is found at the point where your small intestine and large intestine join.
5. Its on the right side of your abdomen about 2 inches or so in from your pelvic bone that sticks out.
6. tale your hand anplace the thumb in your bellybutton stretch it out to touch the crest of your hip on the right side . approximately mid way between the two points is generally where it is. Know as Mcbirneys point
7. the appendix in in the right lower quadrant of your abdomen. it is located at the end of your small intestine right before you enter the colon turning upwards (ascending). It was thought that at one time this organ was once used it digesting cellulose.
8. It's on the right side of the abdominal cavity.
9. You can find your appendix towards the back... there you will find a farther exploration of the main body... ;)
10. Right, lower quadrant. Below the navel to the right hand side of the stomach. Near or closer to where the right ovary might be.
