Patient's question:
I often go in at night to sing and drink beer. I didn't know that yesterday already started with a lot of blood in the stool. I used many medications to treat it, thinking it was hemorrhoids. Now I went to the hospital for tests, and it turned out the liver had blood. The examination revealed alcoholic liver disease. What's going on?Doctor's answer:
Alcoholic liver cirrhosis progresses faster than cirrhosis caused by other factors such as viral hepatitis or primary biliary cirrhosis. Traditional Chinese medicine practitioners told the reporter that the key is to quit drinking in the early stages of alcoholic liver disease. If drinking is stopped and appropriate treatment is provided, various symptoms and related indicators will significantly improve. Otherwise, by the late stage of liver cirrhosis, it will be very difficult to treat. If a suitable liver source cannot be found for liver transplantation, the patient may die from alcohol. In addition, during the treatment of alcoholic liver disease, patients must maintain a light diet and always keep a cheerful and optimistic mindset to avoid unnecessary interference with the complete recovery of alcoholic liver disease.
