Patient's question:
I am 38 years old. Recently, I feel that my liver is very tired. I haven't had a good appetite, and at night, I always feel a sharp pain in my stomach. I went to a nearby hospital for a check-up and was told it was liver disease. They advised me to get injections. I would like to ask how much alcohol consumption is likely to lead to alcoholic liver disease?Doctor's answer:
Frequent drinking of beer can easily lead to alcoholic liver disease if alcohol consumption is excessive. It is best to avoid overconsumption and it is recommended to have a thorough liver function check-up. Additionally, it is advised to undergo a detailed ultrasound examination of the liver and gallbladder. Pay attention to rest and maintain a light diet, avoiding foods that stimulate the liver. If alcoholic liver disease is present, liver-protecting medications can be taken for treatment. It is crucial to avoid excessive fatigue and adhere to a complete alcohol ban. Avoid medications that are harmful to the liver, and it is also recommended to take vitamin C and inosine tablets.
