Gallstones can be easily confused with the following diseases

The symptoms of a problem are not always unique, some symptoms of this disease may also be present in other diseases, so it is troublesome for us to treat. What should be distinguished from the problem of gallstones? Let's take a look.

1. The main symptoms of chronic gastritis are epigastric distension and pain, belching, loss of appetite and history of dyspepsia, fiber gastroscopy is extremely important for the diagnosis of chronic gastritis, gastric mucosal edema, congestion, mucosal color changes to yellow-white or gray-yellow, mucosal atrophy, hypertrophic gastritis can see mucosal fold hypertrophy, or nodules and erosion and superficial ulcers.

2. Peptic ulcer has a history of ulcer, epigastric pain is related to dietary regularity, and gallstones and chronic cholecystitis are often aggravated by pain after eating, especially eating high-fat food, ulcer disease often occurs acutely in spring and autumn, and gallstone chronic cholecystitis is more common than night, barium swallow examination and fiber gastroscopy have obvious distinguishing value.

3. Although there is a history of long-term recurrent attacks of gastric neurosis, it is not obviously related to greasy eating, often closely related to mood swings, often nervous vomiting, vomiting occurs suddenly after eating, generally no nausea, the amount of vomiting is not much and effortless, you can eat after vomiting, it does not affect appetite and food intake, the disease is often accompanied by systemic neurological symptoms, and the symptoms can be alleviated by suggestive therapy, and it is not difficult to identify.

4. Gastric prolapse can have liver, kidney and other organs prolapse, epigastric discomfort aggravated after meals, symptoms are reduced when lying down, upright examination can show that the middle and lower abdomen is full, and the upper abdomen is empty, sometimes gastric type can be seen and there can be vibrating water sound, barium swallow examination can be a clear diagnosis.

5. Renal prolapse often has symptoms such as poor appetite, nausea and vomiting, and is more common on the right side, but the pain in the right upper abdomen and waist is aggravated when standing and walking, colic pain can occur, and radiates to the lower abdomen, and the physical examination is palpated in the lying position, sitting position and standing position, if it is found that the right upper quadrant mass is displaced due to the change of body position, it is meaningful to identify, and the lying and standing renal X-ray plain film and intravenous urography are helpful for diagnosis.

6. Protracted hepatitis and chronic hepatitis have a history of acute hepatitis, chronic dyspepsia and right upper quadrant discomfort and other symptoms, hepatomegaly and poor liver function, and splenomegaly, spider angioma and palmar liver can appear in chronic hepatitis, and gallbladder function is good in B-ultrasound examination.

7. Chronic pancreatitis is often a sequelae of acute pancreatitis, the epigastric pain radiates to the left shoulder and back, X-ray plain film sometimes shows pancreatic calcification or pancreatic stones, fiber duodenoscopy and retrograde cholangiopancreatography have certain value for the diagnosis of chronic pancreatitis.

8. Gallbladder cancer can be combined with gallstones, the history of this disease is short, the disease develops rapidly, and soon there is hepatic hilar lymph node metastasis and direct invasion of nearby liver tissue, so there are more persistent jaundice, right upper quadrant pain is persistent, most patients can have a palpable hard mass under the right upper quadrant costal margin when the symptoms are obvious, B ultrasound and CT examination can help diagnose.

9. Liver cancerIf the primary liver cancer has the right upper quadrant or epigastric pain, the liver with enlargement and nodules can often be palpated at this time, and the liver can be found to have tumor images and radiation defects or areas of reduced density in the liver by B ultrasound examination, radionuclide scan and CT examination, and the alpha-fetoprotein is positive.

The nine diseases introduced above require our attention, especially the identification of them from gallstones. Only when we have done the right identification and found out the disease, can we treat the symptoms and recover our health as soon as possible.
