How is advanced liver cirrhosis treated?

Patient's question:

Recently, my husband has been feeling loss of appetite. No matter what delicious food he tries, he can't eat it. He also often feels abdominal pain and is generally listless. He has also become thinner. I accompanied my husband to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor said my husband has advanced liver cirrhosis.

Doctor's answer:

Cirrhosis is a chronic disease, and there is currently no possibility of reversing it. We can only prevent the progression of cirrhosis. With proper treatment, it can be effectively controlled, and it will never interfere with your quality of life or lifespan. Maintain a proper diet. As a cirrhosis patient, you should consume more high-protein, low-fat, high-vitamin foods that are easier to digest and absorb. This is very helpful for the treatment of cirrhosis. The daily treatment for cirrhosis patients is mainly symptomatic treatment. Patients can take many oral medications, supplemented with vitamins, and pay attention to regular routines, avoiding smoking and alcohol. We hope that cirrhosis patients can recover as soon as possible!
