The gallbladder and stomach are both part of the digestive system and are located close to each other. When you have cholecystitis, you will also feel some discomfort in the stomach, so sometimes you may confuse the location of the disease. So if you feel stomach discomfort, you should first determine whether it is a stomach problem. Why does cholecystitis cause stomach pain?The liver, gallbladder and stomach are all digestive organs and are all controlled by visceral motor nerves (also called autonomic nerves or autonomic nerves). Pain in the abdominal viscera is generally difficult to locate accurately, so the pain caused by cholecystitis can easily be confused with stomach pain. On the other hand, the liver secretes bile and stores it in the gallbladder. After eating, the gallbladder contracts and discharges bile into the duodenum to digest food. So the stomach is actually connected to the bile duct. In cholecystitis, bile discharge is blocked, and the ability to digest fats and other substances is reduced, which can also cause stomach discomfort. If you want to distinguish whether it is a liver and gallbladder problem or a stomach problem, you can do an abdominal color ultrasound and gastroscopy, which can usually make the distinction very clear. Why does cholecystitis cause stomach blockage?1. First of all, the pain nerves of the gallbladder and stomach are actually innervated by the same nerve. Therefore, the clinical manifestations of many abdominal visceral diseases are similar. Therefore, patients with cholecystitis will also have symptoms of stomach pain. According to statistics, about half of cholecystitis patients mistakenly treat their cholecystitis as a stomach disease, and the results are naturally unsatisfactory and the therapeutic effect is poor. 2. Another thing that cholecystitis and stomach diseases have in common is that in addition to stomach pain, there will also be symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and poor appetite, because bile also helps digestion, especially for fatty foods. When the patient has problems with the gallbladder, it will naturally lead to excretion disorders, affecting the patient's digestion. What is the difference between cholecystitis and stomach diseases1. Clinical manifestations: Although cholecystitis and gastric diseases may have similar symptoms, they can still be effectively distinguished from each other based on the details. For example, the pain of patients with cholecystitis is mainly in the right upper abdomen, while the pain of patients with gastric diseases is mainly in the middle of the upper abdomen below the xiphoid process. In addition, the symptoms of patients with cholecystitis often occur after eating high-fat and greasy foods, while the symptoms of patients with gastric diseases can be caused by a variety of factors, such as overeating, excessive drinking, and eating spicy and irritating foods. 2. Clinical examination: Regarding the differentiation between the two diseases, the most effective method is to conduct B-ultrasound and gastroscopy to clarify, which will help patients to effectively treat the disease and recover early. Xiao Ke also recommends that patients with abdominal discomfort who have not received good results from long-term medication should undergo B-ultrasound, gastroscopy and other related examinations to avoid delays and aggravation of the disease due to blind treatment. |
