Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why, many moles have appeared on my face, and I also have a spider angioma. What should I do if a spider angioma appears on the face?Doctor's answer:
If multiple spider angiomas appear on the face, it may indicate poor liver health. There is a possibility of having chronic hepatitis, which could be severe, and it may also lead to multiple occurrences of liver cirrhosis. It is important to visit the hospital as soon as possible for a liver MRI. Additionally, liver function tests and the hepatitis B surface antigen, antibody, core antibody, and e-antigen (HBsAg, Anti-HBs, Anti-HBc, HBeAg) should be checked. Mainly, liver-protecting tablets can be used in conjunction with antiviral medications. Specific medication usage should follow medical advice. Additionally, avoid consuming spicy foods, ginger, garlic, and other similar foods in daily life.
