Patient's question:
I've felt something unusual for the past half month. My pectoral muscles have actually shrunk, but I haven't done any activities to work on them recently. Moreover, I've been feeling extremely abnormal these days—loss of appetite, nausea, and frequent dry heaves after eating a little. Sometimes I also experience abdominal pain. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they discovered that it was liver cirrhosis.Doctor's answer:
Currently, there is no specific medication for liver cirrhosis. It is not advisable to take harmful drugs, as this may increase liver pressure and have the opposite effect. It is recommended to take many liver-protecting drugs under the guidance of a doctor. In terms of diet, it should be highly nutritious and easily digestible. Generally, high-calorie, high-protein, vitamin-rich, and delicious foods are preferred. The fat content should not be too high, but it does not need to be strictly restricted.Additionally, during the treatment of liver cirrhosis, the patient's dietary condition and care are also very important. The patient must pay attention to rest and engage in appropriate activities to avoid unnecessary injuries. It is hoped that the above information can assist you. Thank you.
