Appendicitis pain anatomy

The pain of appendicitis is probably its most infamous feature, but why does it move from around the belly button to the lower right quadrant of the abdomen as the appendicitis worsens?

Here's an attempt to explain the anatomy behind it, and we'll also have to look at the anatomy of the appendix and other bits and bobs as we work our way in.
