Patient's question:
After graduation, through my own efforts, I managed to get a high-level position. There are many banquets to attend, and drinking beer every day is a must. Recently, I've been feeling like I have no appetite, and the mere smell of alcohol makes me feel nauseous. I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up, and the doctor said I had hepatitis. What are the early symptoms of alcoholic hepatitis?Doctor's answer:
Alcoholic hepatitis is a liver disease caused by long-term heavy alcohol consumption, and severe drug abuse can lead to widespread liver cell necrosis and even liver failure. This disease is one of the common liver diseases in our country. The main clinical manifestation of alcoholic hepatitis is the rapid recurrence of jaundice, while other symptoms and signs include fever, ascites, proximal muscle relaxation, etc. Patients with severe alcoholic hepatitis may experience hepatic encephalopathy. Hepatitis patients can, while understanding symptomatic treatment, use folk remedies as supplementary treatment in daily life. It is essential to avoid excessive hunger or fullness in daily diet and never overeat or binge drink.
