Patient's question:
My uncle has been an alcoholic since he was young, so he never married and felt very upset. As a result, he always drank to forget his sorrows. Now that he's getting older, he suddenly stopped eating a while ago. After a medical examination, it was found that he has alcoholic liver disease, which is very serious.Doctor's answer:
Alcoholic liver disease should be treated promptly. On the basis of coordinating with doctors, patients with alcoholic liver disease must abstain from alcohol. Alcohol has a strong toxicity to liver cells, leading to alcoholic fatty liver. In terms of diet, attention should also be paid. It is recommended to consume more vegetarian food, with grains as the foundation, a balance of coarse and fine grains, and follow the principles of light, avoiding greasy, rich in nutrition, and easy to digest. Eat small, frequent meals, and avoid extremely cold, sweet, pungent, and hot foods that can produce phlegm and dampness. In addition to symptomatic treatment, patients with alcoholic liver disease should pay attention to maintaining a good mood in their daily lives, as a positive mood is very helpful for the complete recovery of the disease. I hope the above answer can assist you. Thank you!
