Patient's question:
I am a person who particularly enjoys drinking, basically drinking a little every day. But recently, I don't know what's wrong, I often don't feel like eating dinner. No matter what I do, I always feel extremely tired even without much energy. I always feel like I have no strength in my body. My family says that drinking too much beer might lead to alcoholic liver disease, and I'm a bit worried.Doctor's answer:
First, it is recommended that you go to the hospital for a check-up. The symptoms of alcoholic liver disease are non-specific and can be asymptomatic or present with right upper abdominal pain, loss of appetite, fatigue, weight loss, jaundice, etc. As the condition progresses, neurological and psychiatric symptoms, as well as spider angiomas and palmar erythema, may appear.The principles of treating alcoholic liver disease are: abstinence from alcohol, nutritional support to reduce the severity of alcoholic liver disease, stabilize existing secondary malnutrition, and provide symptomatic treatment for alcoholic cirrhosis and its complications. In addition to symptomatic treatment for alcoholic liver disease, patients also need to pay attention to nursing care, such as maintaining a light diet and avoiding spicy and irritating foods.
At the same time, patients should also pay attention to choosing a diagnosis at a Class-A hospital to ensure a good therapeutic effect.
