The clinical manifestations of chronic cholecystitis are atypical, such as vague pain in the right upper abdomen, abdominal distension, belching, nausea, anorexia of greasy food, vague pain in the right quarter of the rib cage or the right waist, and mild pressure pain under the rib edge of the right upper abdomen, or discomfort when pressed, etc. Chest tightness does not usually occur, and when it manifests itself as chest tightness, it should be promptly sought for medical treatment, so as to exclude respiratory and cardiac system diseases.
The treatment of chronic cholecystitis mainly includes medication and surgery. Medications are choleretic drugs, such as anti-inflammatory choleretic tablets and ursodeoxycholic acid capsules. If the patient’s symptoms are severe and accompanied by gallbladder stones, cholecystectomy and other treatments are feasible.
