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 the nearby hospital for a check-up and was told it was liver disease. They asked me to get an injection. Can I join the army with a liver cyst?Doctor's answer:
According to your description, you should carefully estimate the size of your cyst. Generally, it should not affect your eligibility for military service. The latest physical examination standards for citizen recruitment stipulate that the diameter of a single liver cyst should be less than 3 centimeters, and the number of multiple liver cysts should be less than or equal to 3. Most young people have a single liver cyst, which is relatively small. It will never affect your aspiration to serve your country. You should also pay attention to your diet and avoid using hepatotoxic drugs to prevent the cyst from shrinking.
