appedicitis is inflammation of the appendix, usually caused by infection. the appendix can burst if not removed promptly because as the swelling increases it distresses the tissue surrounding the appendix causing it to weaken and eventaully fail.

inflammation of the appendix can be commonly from plugging of the orifice by fecal material, untreated appendicitis can cause rupture, good luck
