Patient's question:
I am studying in a place outside my hometown. My mom called to say that my grandfather has developed cirrhosis of the liver, which is in the advanced stage, and he may not live much longer. She asked me to come home and see him. My grandfather has always been an avid drinker and had alcoholic liver disease early on. It might be due to his lack of attention to diet that the condition worsened. How long can someone with advanced cirrhosis of the liver live?Doctor's answer:
The same applies to Traditional Chinese Medicine. While there are differences in skill levels, since it has improved, one should focus on taking Chinese herbal medicine. However, some herbal formulas can be quite draining and are beneficial for increasing albumin. It is also important to pay attention to diet and maintain a low-sodium intake.In daily life, it is also necessary to pay attention to a balanced diet, engage in appropriate physical activity, and ensure adequate rest. Maintaining an optimistic mindset can help lower one's immunity.
For patients with liver cirrhosis, while understanding professional treatment, they can also use dietary therapy as a complementary treatment in daily life. In their daily diet, it is important to eat appropriately and avoid foods.
