Can such liver cirrhosis be treated?

Patient's question:

My father is 56 years old this year. He had schistosomiasis liver when he was young. His work is usually quite tiring, and he suffers from intrahepatic bile duct stones. He usually feels severe abdominal pain. Accompanied by oral ulcer symptoms, he is now diagnosed with liver cirrhosis.

Doctor's answer:

Male, 56 years old. Hepatocirrhosis, caused by schistosomiasis. The treatment for schistosomiasis-induced hepatocirrhosis primarily focuses on symptomatic and preventive measures. Liver function impairment should be prevented, avoiding hepatotoxic drugs and foods, as well as excessive physical exertion. Regular liver function tests should be conducted, and liver-protective medications should be used appropriately based on liver function. In addition to treating hepatocirrhosis, patients are advised to pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a positive mood at all times to enhance their physical condition and slow down the recovery process.
