Patient's question:
Drinking beer is quite strong, but I don't do it every day. Usually, I drink a lot every three or two days. This has been going on for over ten years, and there haven't been any abnormal symptoms. However, I'm very worried about developing alcoholic liver disease and don't know what to do.Doctor's answer:
Alcoholic liver disease is a liver injury disease caused by long-term heavy drinking. Long-term heavy drinking, ethanol and its derivative acetaldehyde can cause liver cell degeneration, necrosis, and other changes, ultimately leading to alcoholic liver disease patients being affected by alcoholic liver disease. We should promptly implement symptomatic treatment principles and avoid avoiding medical treatment. If alcoholic liver disease does not improve with treatment, it is necessary to promptly adjust the treatment plan.
