Patient's question:

My chest has also become larger, and my glands have swollen. I feel thicker and have even developed a stomach ulcer.Doctor's answer:
I. Viral Hepatitis: Currently, viral hepatitis, especially chronic hepatitis B, is a major factor leading to cirrhosis.II. Alcoholism: Long-term excessive alcohol consumption is one of the factors that can lead to cirrhosis.
III. Nutritional Disorders: Malnutrition can reduce the resistance of liver cells to toxins and infectious factors, and the detailed causes of cirrhosis are described in the etiology.
IV. Circulatory Disorders: Congestive heart failure in males and chronic constrictive pericarditis can cause long-term congestion and edema in the liver, leading to liver cell regeneration and fibrosis, which can result in cirrhosis. Patients should promptly follow symptomatic treatment principles and not avoid seeking medical attention. If cirrhosis is not effectively treated, it is important to promptly adjust the treatment plan.
