Gallbladder diseases mainly include hepatitis, gallstones, liver cancer, cholecystitis, and cholelithiasis. Hepatitis refers to a disease in which liver cells are damaged by viruses, drugs, toxins, or other causes, leading to impaired liver function and disruption of liver tissue and function. Symptoms of hepatitis include fever, fatigue, hepatomegaly, jaundice, and ascites. Gallstones are solid deposits formed within the bile ducts from substances in bile such as bile acids, cholesterol, and proteins. Symptoms of gallstones include fever, abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, and bloating. In daily life, patients are advised to maintain a balanced diet, ensure adequate sleep, and avoid excessive fatigue.
