How are cirrhosis and hepatic encephalopathy treated?

Patient's question:

Liver cirrhosis for over ten years, frequent episodes since the recurrence of hepatic encephalopathy on August 20, 2010, with intervals of less than half a month at their longest, and as short as three days after discharge. The condition worsens with each episode, now making it difficult to walk and unable to be self-sufficient.

Doctor's answer:

The best way to undergo a liver transplant surgery is that for patients, if the liver cirrhosis condition is severe, immediate symptomatic treatment should be provided, with appropriate medication. Otherwise, it may lead to a recurrence of liver cirrhosis. Additionally, patients need to maintain a proper diet and keep a positive mood. If any discomfort occurs, it is recommended to seek medical treatment at a formal hospital as soon as possible to avoid the condition from worsening. It is hoped that the answers to the above questions can assist everyone.
