What is the difference between chronic cholecystitis and early liver disease symptoms?



The difference between the symptoms of chronic cholecystitis and early liver disease is that patients with chronic cholecystitis may have epigastric pain induced by eating greasy food, and patients with liver disease have lack of appetite and abdominal distension.

Patients with chronic cholecystitis have obvious symptoms or can be triggered by epigastric pain after eating greasy food, and have a history of biliary colic, which is typically characterized by episodes of right epigastric colic radiating to the back of the right shoulder, accompanied by nausea and vomiting, lasting for several minutes to several hours, and is clinically characterized by recurrent episodes. Patients with early liver disease may have symptoms such as epigastric stuffiness, fatigue, loss of appetite, and abdominal pain.

Patients with chronic cholecystitis and early liver disease can have vague pain and distension in the right upper abdomen or right quadrant, and some patients may have no obvious symptoms.

Symptoms of chronic cholecystitis and early liver disease are very similar, patients can not diagnose and identify by themselves, should be judged by the doctor to improve the relevant examination.
