Patient's question:
Doctor, my mother is 46 years old, female. She has been saying that she has been in severe pain these past few days, so we took her to the hospital. Fortunately, she was free, and we learned that she suffers from primary biliary cirrhosis. How long does the treatment for primary biliary cirrhosis take approximately?Doctor's answer:
Patients with cirrhosis generally find it difficult to recover completely on their own and can only rely on oral medications to slow the progression of cirrhosis. If cirrhosis progresses unchecked, it may lead to a recurrence of liver cancer. Therefore, maintaining a normal lifestyle, getting adequate rest, and seeking early treatment with oral medications or intravenous therapy at a regular hospital are important. Regular follow-up of liver function is also necessary. In summary, there are no particularly special methods, so do not be anxious or worried.
