Patient's question:
I might have some bad habits in my daily life. I really love drinking beer and smoking, and I usually don't go to sleep until after midnight. Lately, I've been feeling very weak and experiencing severe pain around my liver area. After a thorough examination at the hospital, I found out I have a liver cyst. Do I need treatment for a 7mm liver cyst?Doctor's answer:
If a liver cyst is 7 millimeters, it is actually a relatively small condition and does not require treatment. Careful observation is sufficient. You can still smoke, drink beer, and maintain poor lifestyle habits, but these behaviors must be avoided. This means not staying up late or being fatigued, and especially avoiding drinking beer. Animal organs should also be consumed as little as possible, and more fruits and vegetables should be eaten daily. The main point is regular follow-up checks, and surgery may only be considered if the size is below 5 centimeters.
