What Is Cholecystitis?
7. Symptoms
The severity of the symptoms of cholecystitis will likely vary from person to person. The patient will also likely notice the symptoms are more severe just after they have eaten a meal. This is especially the case if their meal was high in fat, or if it was a large meal. One symptom of the condition is a pain in the abdomen area that will often be severe.
The patient will often also find that their abdomen feels tender to the touch, and the pain can also spread to their back, or their right shoulder. Nausea is another common symptom and the patient may also vomit. Cholecystitis will also cause a fever in many cases.
