Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Abdominal pain and nausea after eating a fatty meal is most likely due to:
A
gastroesophageal reflux
B
gastroenteritis
C
cholelithiasis/cholecystitis
D
hepatitis C
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The pain typically arises after fatty meals, when the gallbladder contracts to release bile into the duodenum to aid in digestion by emulsifying fats.

Detailed explanation-2: -If something keeps the gallbladder from emptying, bile can build up and cause cholecystitis. You should avoid high-fat foods with cholecystitis. These include fried foods, canned fish, processed meats, full-fat dairy products, processed baked goods, fast food, and most packaged snack foods.

Detailed explanation-3: -Acute cholecystitis comes on suddenly and causes severe, ongoing pain. More than 95% of people with acute cholecystitis have gallstones. Pain begins in your mid to upper right abdomen and may spread to your right shoulder blade or back. Pain is strongest 15 to 20 minutes after eating and it continues.
