What happens during the disease - other cholecystitis
Other cholecystitis is an inflammation of the gallbladder caused by a variety of factors, including infection, trauma, and certain medications. it is believed to occur when the bile ducts become blocked, resulting in a buildup of bile and pressure in the gallbladder leading to inflammation and irritation of the gallbladder wall. this can lead to pain, fever, nausea, and vomiting. treatment includes antibiotics, pain medications, and, in some cases, surgery.
