Patient's question:
Patient is male, 38 years old. Has had hepatitis B for 20 years. Later developed cirrhosis, severe pain in the liver area, sometimes also joint pain.Doctor's answer:
I understand your question. We say that liver cirrhosis caused by hepatitis is terrible. If it is not controlled, it will eventually lead to ascites and then hepatocellular carcinoma. Therefore, the first step is to control the spread of the hepatitis virus, mainly ensuring normal liver function and normal HBV-DNA levels. The second step is to prevent liver cirrhosis. Liver cirrhosis is irreversible, so we must prevent it from further deteriorating. In addition to timely treatment for liver disease patients, they also need to pay attention to maintaining a good mood in daily life. A good mood is very helpful for the complete recovery of the disease. I hope the above answer can help you.
