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 the nearby hospital for a check-up and was told it's a liver disease. They asked me to get an injection. Is liver cyst dangerous to life?Doctor's answer:
Hepatic cysts are generally identified through a detailed liver and bile duct ultrasound examination. They usually do not pose a life-threatening risk, and the main considerations include the following aspects: First, congenital developmental issues; second, chronic inflammatory stimulation. In cases where the volume is not large, close observation is generally recommended. If the volume is less than 5 centimeters, it may cause chest tightness and chest pain, and surgical intervention can be used to forcibly drain the cyst.
