Patient's question:
Is alcoholic liver disease a type of cirrhosis, or is it a precursor to cirrhosis? CT scans have not shown any signs of cirrhosis yet. I would like to know what the treatment options are for alcoholic liver disease?Doctor's answer:
This issue, you must now abstain from alcohol, and then you need to take liver-protecting medication, and have periodic liver function tests. Rest and take care of your body regularly. If you continue to expand, it may lead to cirrhosis or even liver cancer again, and symptoms like ascites may reappear. The liver disease condition is very serious, and it is recommended that patients seek timely treatment. It is hoped that patients can follow the doctor's advice for symptomatic treatment. At the same time, pay attention to self-care, have a proper diet, and avoid worsening the condition.
