Patient's question:
Cirrhosis, currently the transaminases and the like are well-controlled, but this right leg always swells during the day, and it gets better after a good sleep. Liver function and kidney function are normal, and the venous examination on the leg is also fine. What could be the reason for this?Doctor's answer:
Liver and kidney function are normal, lower limb blood vessels are normal. There is a history of liver cirrhosis, and currently the right lower limb is swollen, suggesting recurrent circulatory disorders in the right lower limb. It is recommended to visit a hospital for a detailed lower limb blood vessel ultrasound to rule out vascular congestion. Warm foot baths and massage should be used to promote blood circulation. Pay attention to enhancing nutrition. Additionally, during the treatment of liver cirrhosis patients, the patient's dietary condition and care are also crucial. The patient must digest vitamins and prevent stomach problems.
