Patient's question:
Vertical lines on the nails, often feel tired, elevated transaminase levels, have lost a lot of weight, and have not gone to the hospital for a check-up yet. What could be the reason?Doctor's answer:
Vertical lines on the nails often indicate potential liver problems, such as elevated transaminase levels, frequent fatigue, and significant weight loss, which are also related to the decline in liver function. Generally, acute or chronic hepatitis, fatty liver, and liver tumors may cause the symptoms mentioned above. To determine whether it is acute or chronic hepatitis, medical examination is necessary. It is recommended to visit the liver disease department of a hospital on an empty stomach for relevant tests. Liver disease is not easily resolved. Friends with liver disease should maintain an optimistic attitude and face it with a positive mindset, as this can boost their confidence in combating the disease and increase the likelihood of recovery.
