Patient's question:
Suddenly, something strange happened to me in the past two weeks. My pectoral muscles have actually shrunk, but I haven't done any chest exercises during this time. Also, I've been feeling extremely abnormal these days—loss of appetite, nausea, and frequent dry heaves after eating a little, sometimes accompanied by abdominal pain. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, they said it was liver cirrhosis.Doctor's answer:
Currently, there is no specific medication for liver cirrhosis. It is not advisable to take harmful drugs, as this may increase liver pressure and have the opposite effect. It is recommended to take many liver-protecting drugs under the guidance of a doctor. In terms of diet, it should be highly nutritious and easily digestible. Generally, high-calorie, high-protein, vitamin-rich, and delicious foods are preferred. The fat content should not be too high, but it does not need to be strictly restricted. There are many treatment methods for liver cirrhosis, but since the symptoms of patients differ, the diagnostic methods used also vary. Therefore, it is necessary for patients to be diagnosed as soon as possible so that they can receive targeted treatment.
