First of all, everyone knows that patients with cholecystitis cannot eat too many eggs. As soon as they eat eggs, pain will appear in the gallbladder area, abdominal distension and other symptoms. Everyone only knows that patients with cholecystitis cannot eat eggs, but they don’t know how to eat eggs. What are the side effects of eggs for cholecystitis?
Cholecystitis is mainly caused by bacterial infection in the gallbladder due to bile duct obstruction or stone blockage, as well as the inflammatory reaction caused by stone friction. As we age, the gallbladder wall will gradually thicken and shrink. Normal damaged function is reduced, and bile cannot be excreted normally, so long-term stasis leads to the formation of cholates, and relaxation of the bile duct sphincter leads to retrograde infection by bacteria.
The main clinical manifestations of cholecystitis are right upper quadrant pain, mainly when eating spicy and greasy food, the pain is more common at night, and there is also radiating pain to the right shoulder and back, nausea and vomiting, fever and chills, Symptoms such as jaundice, abdominal distension and belching appear.
Eggs contain a lot of protein and cholesterol substances, and eggs may also promote the formation of cholesterol stones. Therefore, patients with cholecystitis and gallstones should try to eat as few eggs as possible, especially fried eggs, because they contain higher fat, which will cause the gallbladder to contract more severely and aggravate the original gallbladder inflammation.
Patients with cholecystitis are not recommended to eat more eggs, especially egg yolks. Egg yolk contains a large amount of cholesterol or some lipid substances, which can easily aggravate the symptoms of cholecystitis. If you want to eat eggs, you can eat a small amount of protein. Protein has a relatively small impact on cholecystitis. Patients with cholecystitis should pay more attention to their diet. They should eat a low-fat and light diet and avoid greasy foods, especially fried and fried fatty meats. If cholecystitis is in the acute attack stage, it is recommended to temporarily abstain from water and food to avoid aggravating cholecystitis symptoms.
If cholecystitis occurs repeatedly, surgical treatment is recommended for such patients. Recurrent cholecystitis is prone to recurring pain and discomfort, and surgical removal of the gallbladder is clinically recommended.
