Patient's question:
My second uncle often drinks alcohol. Recently, he has been complaining of stomach pain and his abdomen has been swollen like a big balloon. He had an ultrasound at the hospital, and the doctor said his spleen was enlarged and he had fatty liver disease. Does an enlarged spleen cause fatty liver disease?Doctor's answer:
It is recommended to check liver function. The best way to treat it is to abstain from alcohol. Traditional Chinese Medicine has unique advantages in treating fatty liver. TCM emphasizes the holistic concept, syndrome differentiation and treatment, seeking the root cause, and comprehensive evaluation for regulation, which can achieve good therapeutic effects. Fatty liver is a disease that is not easy to recover from. Friends with the disease should always maintain an optimistic attitude and face it with a positive mindset. Only in this way can they reduce their confidence in combating fatty liver and surely achieve recovery.
