Patient's question:

My father said he has been feeling unwell recently, always experiencing abdominal pain and eating very little. So I took him to the hospital for a thorough examination, and it was found that he has ascites. How is ascites treated? Hello, is the cost of treating ascites high?

Doctor's answer:

Ascites is generally treated with oral diuretic medications. This approach can also help reduce radiation effects. It is important to closely monitor for any recurrence of albumin reduction. If albumin levels drop again, albumin-digesting methods can be used for treatment, which may also help reduce ascites. Additionally, it is advisable to limit the intake of high-fat foods.
