Patient's question:
I have hepatitis B (), and I am currently taking Entecavir. My liver function tests are normal, and my DNA is negative. An ultrasound shows coarse, dense, and uneven liver spots, with a portal vein width of 1.2 cm. The doctor said it's liver cirrhosis. What medicine should I use to regulate it?Doctor's answer:
Currently, early cirrhosis has reappeared. Do not panic. Focus on antiviral treatment and do not stop medication arbitrarily to prevent the condition from worsening. At the same time, provide symptomatic treatment to reduce portal hypertension and soften liver fibrosis, with careful observation. For the patient, if the liver disease is severe, immediate symptomatic treatment and proper medication are necessary, otherwise it may lead to a recurrence of the liver disease. Additionally, the patient needs to maintain a proper diet and keep a positive mood.
