Obesity leading to costal pain is not cholecystitis

There are many cholecystitis patients in life, cholecystitis patients are particularly uncomfortable when the disease occurs, sometimes they even vomit bile, and cholecystitis patients must not eat eggs, once they eat eggs, the condition will be serious, and they will feel pain in the rib area when they are sick, and some patients will wonder if they have cholecystitis because of rib pain caused by obesity, so is it cholecystitis caused by obesity?

Cholecystitis is a kind of infectious inflammation of the biliary system, which is more common in middle-aged people aged 35~55 years old, and the incidence of women is more common than that of men, especially in women who are obese and have multiple pregnancies.

Cholecystitis is an inflammatory disease of the gallbladder caused by infection, bile irritation, regurgitation of pancreatic juice into the biliary tract, and dysregulation of biliary and lipid metabolism. Cholecystitis can be further divided into acute cholecystitis and chronic cholecystitis.

Acute cholecystitis typically presents with an acute onset of persistent or paroxysmal cramping in the right upper quadrant that may radiate to the right horn, tenderness or rebound tenderness in the gallbladder area, muscle tension, fever, nausea and vomiting, or jaundice and leukocytosis.

Chronic cholecystitis is characterized by recurrent abdominal distension of varying severity, discomfort or pain in the right upper quadrant and upper abdomen, often radiating to the back of the right shoulder, with dyspepsia symptoms such as belching pantothenic acid, and worsening symptoms of eating greasy food.

Long-term cholecystitis will lead to bile disorders, affecting the digestion and absorption of food, so that some people will have symptoms of weight loss. Because cholecystitis can cause indigestion, bloating, right upper quadrant pain, loss of appetite and aversion to greasy diet, etc., it will cause weight loss in the long run, which will make the patient lose weight day by day.

At this time, patients with cholecystitis need to pay attention to nutritional supplementation. Make sure to consume an adequate amount of protein, and supplement with high-quality protein. Adequate protein supplementation is conducive to repairing liver cell damage caused by cholecystitis and cholelithiasis, and you can choose low-fat and high-quality protein based on fish, shrimp, poultry, tofu and low-oil soy cholecystectomy diet and maintenance products.

In summary, cholecystitis can make people emaciated, but it does not necessarily cause obesity. If there is a patient who has become obese after the disease, it is better to go to the hospital for a detailed examination.
