Patient's question:
These days, my boss has said that I'm not in good spirits, which has affected my work performance. Actually, I didn't want to be this way either. I often can't sleep at night, and sometimes feel anxious and uncomfortable. If it gets worse, I'm very worried about it affecting my health and work. Can liver cirrhosis patients have children?Doctor's answer:
Hello, friend. In our country, liver cirrhosis is relatively common, with most cases being post-hepatitis cirrhosis, while a smaller portion is alcoholic or schistosomiasis-related cirrhosis. In the early stages of liver cirrhosis, active prevention and treatment can reverse or halt its progression. However, in the late stages, it can severely impact the patient's quality of life and even threaten their life. Therefore, the prevention and treatment of liver cirrhosis are extremely important.Currently, the best treatment for liver cirrhosis is traditional Chinese medicine. Only through methods such as invigorating blood circulation, resolving stasis, softening and dissolving hard masses, and enhancing the body's immunity can liver cirrhosis be completely cured.
Using drug therapy to treat liver cirrhosis can promote the rapid absorption of necrotic liver cells and fibrotic liver tissue, making the liver softer, the spleen smaller, and the portal vein narrower. In early-stage liver cirrhosis, symptoms can disappear within one and a half months, liver function returns to normal, and the liver begins to soften after three months.
After six months of treatment for early-stage liver cirrhosis, ultrasound examinations can show complete recovery of the liver. For middle and late-stage liver cirrhosis, after six months of treatment, both ultrasound and liver fibrosis tests show significant improvements—something Western medicine cannot achieve.
Liver cirrhosis patients must absolutely abstain from alcohol. In daily life, it is recommended to avoid certain types of fish, excessive protein, alcohol and smoking, excessive sugar, spicy foods, excessive salt, hard foods, indiscriminate medication use, excessive sexual activity, overexertion, and pessimistic emotions.
