Patient's question:
Recently, when I went to the bathroom, I noticed that my urine was very yellow, like the color of chrysanthemum tea. I drank some plain water and my urine remained yellow. I've been feeling very weak and lacking energy. There's some pain in my liver area, and I've also experienced a recurrence of high fever.Doctor's answer:
Food should be fresh, sweet, palatable, light, easy to digest, suitable for both hot and cold temperatures, non-irritating, and in sufficient quantity. It should be highly nutritious, including liquid, semi-liquid, and soft foods. For patients with acute jaundice hepatitis, it is recommended to avoid spicy and irritating foods, especially tobacco and alcohol. (The main component of alcohol is ethanol, which, after entering the bloodstream, undergoes decomposition and metabolism in the liver. The compressed decomposition product, acetaldehyde, has a strong toxicity to liver cells and can exacerbate damage to already affected liver cells) Based on this, dietary care guidance was implemented for patients with acute jaundice hepatitis through syndrome differentiation and treatment.In addition, during the treatment of hepatitis, in addition to medication, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also particularly important. The patient must always maintain a cheerful mood and eat appropriately to avoid unnecessary impacts on the complete recovery of hepatitis.
