What should be done about ascites in cirrhosis?

Patient's question:

For a month, I have been experiencing abdominal distension and wanting to eat but unable to eat much. Because if I eat, it gets worse and then I have to go to the hospital for a check-up, where it was diagnosed as liver cirrhosis with ascites.

Doctor's answer:

After reading your description, we speculate that the ascites may be caused by cirrhosis. Generally, some liver-soothing and diuretic Chinese herbal medicines can be used for treatment. In addition to timely treatment for cirrhosis, friends with the condition should maintain a positive attitude when facing the disease. Only in this way can they reduce the patient's immunity and the belief in fighting the disease. At the same time, they should pay close attention to their dietary care and monitor their symptoms closely, believing that this will surely drive cirrhosis away.
