Patient's question:
I have had fatty liver for two years. Due to busy work, I haven't paid much attention to it. Recently, my company conducted a health check-up, and my condition has worsened to moderate fatty liver. I am very worried. Could you please tell me what are the harms of moderate fatty liver to the human body?Doctor's answer:
Fatty liver can cause the following health hazards to people: promoting the formation of atherosclerosis, inducing liver cirrhosis, liver failure, and liver cancer. It can also cause and exacerbate coronary heart disease and hypertension. The relationship between atherosclerosis and coronary heart disease, as well as hypertension, is very close. Experiments have shown that alcoholic fatty liver patients with hypertension and coronary heart disease are more likely to suffer a myocardial infarction and sudden death. For patients, if the condition of fatty liver is severe, timely symptomatic treatment and proper medication are necessary. Otherwise, it may lead to a recurrence of fatty liver. In addition, patients also need to pay attention to their diet and psychological care. It is hoped that the answers above can help everyone.
