Patient's question:
What is alcoholic liver disease and what symptoms may reappear?Doctor's answer:
Alcoholic hepatitis is undoubtedly a disease caused by long-term heavy drinking, leading to liver damage and an increase in liver function. Since our liver has a detoxifying function and liver cells have a certain regenerative capacity, early stages generally show no clinical symptoms or only mild abdominal pain or discomfort in the liver area. As the condition progresses, most liver cells are damaged, liver function increases, and symptoms such as abdominal pain, overall fatigue, poor nutrition, pain in the liver area, nausea, and vomiting may reappear.
