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 was liver disease. They advised me to get injections. Could you please explain why liver cirrhosis and ascites cause bloating after eating?Doctor's answer:

It is mainly considered that there has been a change in your gastrointestinal condition. Generally, when this situation occurs, it is recommended to promptly stabilize the ascites and improve the current clinical condition, which affects protein absorption.
