According to Google, “peritonitis is the inflammation of the membrane lining the abdominal wall and covering the abdominal organs.
“Peritonitis is usually infectious and often life-threatening. It’s caused by leakage or a hole in the intestines, such as from a burst appendix. Even if the fluid is sterile, inflammation can occur; and symptoms usually include pain, tenderness, rigid abdominal muscles, fever, nausea and vomiting.
“Antibiotics are almost always required, along with surgery or drainage.”
