How to Treat Pediatric Liver Disease

Patient's question:

These days, my boss said my spirits aren't good, affecting my work performance. Actually, I didn't mean to, either. I often can't sleep at night, sometimes feeling anxious and uncomfortable. If it gets serious, I'm worried it will affect my health and work. How is pediatric liver disease treated?

Doctor's answer:

In your case, it may be due to liver function damage. The essence of liver dysfunction is the degeneration and necrosis of liver cells, which 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 and ammonia that need to be processed by the liver in the blood. It is recommended to conduct a detailed liver function test and the hepatitis B surface antigen, antibody, core antibody, and e-antigen test. There are many causes of pediatric liver disease. If the child is diagnosed with pediatric liver disease, parents need to cooperate with the doctor to start treatment immediately, cooperate with gastrointestinal decompression, and develop good hygiene habits. Parents should pay attention not to develop picky eating habits in their children and maintain a balanced diet.
