Patient's question:
Recently, I was diagnosed with ascites in the hospital. I want to know what are the treatments available for ascites? Can the most reliable ascites treatment completely relieve this condition? I plan to first regulate my body with traditional Chinese medicine, and then go to the hospital for treatment. I feel this approach will be more effective.Doctor's answer:
Ascites is a common disease in clinical diagnosis of hepatobiliary surgery, most of which is caused by conditions such as cirrhosis or liver cancer. In clinical diagnosis, methods such as abdominal puncture and closed drainage are primarily used for treatment, which can effectively alleviate symptoms, but they cannot fundamentally solve the problem. The same applies to the use of traditional Chinese medicine for regulation. It is necessary to promptly seek a thorough examination in the hepatobiliary surgery department of a formal public hospital, identify the cause, and actively treat the primary disease. Only by treating the primary disease effectively can ascites naturally disappear.
