How is liver cirrhosis treated?

Patient's question:

Treated in hospital twice. Minimal ascites.

Doctor's answer:

Ascites is one of the most significant complications of cirrhosis, occurring when the disease progresses to the decompensation stage of liver function. I don't know how your two treatments went or what kind of treatment was administered. If the abdominal pain is severe and large amounts of ascites reappear, it is necessary to go to a regular hospital for abdominal puncture and drainage to remove the ascites, as well as to administer anesthesia, human albumin, and plasma for relief. Currently, as long as the ascites is gone, you can be discharged and continue rehabilitation at home, because there is no specific medication for ascites at the moment. It is recommended that you first focus on mental care—avoid getting angry or fatigued, maintain a good mental state, and ensure you remain happy.
