Patient's question:
I am 38 years old. Recently, I feel that my liver is very tired. I haven't had much 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's liver disease. They advised me to get injections. I would like to ask, what are the methods for treating advanced liver ascites?Doctor's answer:
The treatment of ascites is very common in clinical diagnosis. Generally, it is considered to be a manifestation caused by portal hypertension, which can be analyzed through a comprehensive ultrasound examination of the liver and gallbladder. It can also be inferred through tests such as liver function or liver fibrosis. If it has progressed to an advanced stage, the risk is relatively high, and anti-inflammatory and bile-expelling drugs or the tapping and removal of ascites may be necessary, supplemented with albumin.
