Symptoms of acute cholecystitis
Acute cholecystitis is a relatively common digestive system disease in clinical practice, often triggered by the presence of gallstones, leading to acute inflammation of the gallbladder. When an acute cholecystitis attack occurs, it typically presents as pain in the upper right abdomen, accompanied by fever, and sometimes nausea and vomiting, similar to symptoms of gastric discomfort. Additionally, if a gallstone falls and lodges in the cystic duct, or even in the common bile duct, it can cause jaundice, as indicated by the yellowing of the skin and sclera. During a physical examination, it might be possible to detect tenderness in the upper right abdomen, or even rebound tenderness. Another possible positive sign could be Murphy's sign, which are all common manifestations of acute cholecystitis.
Harm of Fatty Liver to the Body
Fatty liver has become a common disease in modern people and it can bring potentially great harm to the body. Firstly, fatty liver can cause steatohepatitis, leading to elevated transaminases and causing inflammatory changes in the liver, damaging liver function. Long-term liver damage can lead to cirrhosis, and the likelihood of fatty liver turning into liver cancer also significantly increases. At the same time, most patients with fatty liver have abnormalities in lipid metabolism, are likely to have comorbidities like high blood sugar and high blood pressure, which could damage various systems throughout the body.
How long does it take to treat atrophic gastritis with erosion?
Atrophic gastritis with erosion is a type of chronic gastritis and has a lengthy course of disease. Through treatment, the erosions may heal within six to eight weeks. However, reversing the atrophy of the gastric mucosa is a long-term and slow process, and there are no specific effective drugs clinically available. Some traditional Chinese medicines and proprietary Chinese medicines may be effective, but it typically takes at least six months. Therefore, the duration required to treat atrophic gastritis with erosion varies from person to person, depending on individual differences.
