Can liver cirrhosis be treated?

Patient's question:

My grandmother doesn't know what's wrong. Recently, she has been feeling uncomfortable in her liver area. So, I took her to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor there said she has this disease. I want to know how she got this disease. It might not be treatable. I don't know which hospital has a good cure for this disease. If anyone knows, please let me know. I want to take my grandmother to that hospital to get proper treatment. I hope the disease can be cured.

Doctor's answer:

It is unlikely to heal on its own. The causes of cirrhosis in our country are primarily based on viral hepatitis (mainly hepatitis B and C), schistosomiasis, and alcoholic liver disease, leading to diffuse fibrosis of connective tissue and the formation of new nodules. The normal liver lobular structure and vascular architecture are destroyed, resulting in liver deformation and hardening, which ultimately leads to cirrhosis. In addition to active treatment, patients with cirrhosis need to pay attention to maintaining deep sleep throughout their lives. Sufficient deep sleep can help you recover from this disease as soon as possible. I hope the above answer can assist you. Thank you!
