Patient's question:
What is the doctor doing when they take blood after I give birth? Is it for liver disease testing?Doctor's answer:
In your case, it may be due to liver function damage. The essence of liver function damage is the degeneration and necrosis of liver cells. This inevitably leads to the leakage of enzymes from liver cells into the blood, a decline in the ability of liver cells to synthesize proteins and gluconeogenesis, and the retention of bilirubin, ammonia, and other substances that require liver processing in the blood.It is recommended to conduct a detailed examination of liver function and the hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg), hepatitis B core antibody (anti-HBc), hepatitis B e antigen (HBeAg), and hepatitis B surface antibody (anti-HBs). There are many causes of pediatric liver disease. If the child is confirmed to have pediatric liver disease, parents need to cooperate with the doctor for timely treatment, cooperate with gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits.
Parents should pay attention not to let the child develop picky eating habits and maintain a balanced diet.
