Women with cholecystitis generally do not experience back pain.

Pain associated with cholecystitis may cause pain in the right shoulder. In addition to shoulder pain, patients with cholecystitis may also experience pain under the right ribs. Severe cases may also be accompanied by chills, fever, jaundice, dark urine, etc. It is necessary to promptly complete abdominal imaging studies, such as ultrasound, CT, MRI, etc., to clarify the diagnosis. Active anti-infection treatment is required, which may include third-generation cephalosporin antibiotics or fluoroquinolone antibiotics. If necessary, surgical treatment may also be required.

(The use of medications should be under the guidance of a physician)

Can you drink alcohol with acute cholecystitis?

Acute cholecystitis, clinically divided into calculous cholecystitis and acalculous cholecystitis, is closely related to diet regardless of the type. Therefore, patients with acute cholecystitis should not consume alcohol, as drinking can lead to another attack of acute cholecystitis. Most episodes of acute cholecystitis are directly related to diet and excessive drinking, so not only during an acute attack but also in everyday life, it is important to avoid greasy, fried foods, spicy and irritating foods, and excessive alcohol consumption, in order to prevent stimulating the swelling of the gallbladder mucosa and triggering an attack of acute cholecystitis.

How to relieve gallblitis pain?

Gallbladder inflammation generally presents as sudden severe pain in the upper right abdomen, typically occurring after consuming a large amount of fatty foods or most frequently at night. The pain may radiate to the right shoulder or back, indicating gallbladder inflammation. For treatment, antispasmodic pain relief medications can be used. If these are ineffective, opiates like pethidine may be employed to alleviate symptoms. Additionally, it is necessary to perform routine blood tests and imaging, such as an abdominal CT scan or ultrasound, to confirm the diagnosis. Once the diagnosis is confirmed, aggressive anti-inflammatory treatment should be pursued. (Medication should be used under the guidance of a physician.)

Can acute cholecystitis recur?

Acute cholecystitis can recur. This condition often results from a bacterial infection leading to an inflammatory response. At this stage, it can be treated with antibiotics to control the inflammation and alleviate the condition. However, if the gallbladder is not surgically removed, the inflammation can repeatedly flare up, potentially leading to chronic cholecystitis. This results in recurrent discomfort and pain in the upper right abdomen, affecting the quality of life. Therefore, for patients with acute cholecystitis, especially those caused by gallstones, it is advisable to undergo surgery as soon as possible. Only through surgical removal of the gallbladder can a complete cure be achieved, preventing recurrence.
