The liver is a vital metabolic organ in the human body and participates in a variety of metabolism, detoxification, storage and secretion functions. Once the liver is damaged by viruses, alcohol, drugs, etc., it may lead to necrosis and fibrosis of liver cells, eventually forming cirrhosis. Liver cirrhosis will affect the normal function of the liver, causing portal hypertension, ascites, esophageal variceal bleeding, hepatic encephalopathy, liver cancer and other complications, seriously threatening the patient's life. In addition, cirrhosis is a high-risk factor for liver cancer, with more than 80 % of liver cancer patients develop on the basis of cirrhosis. Common causes of liver cirrhosis in my country are complex and diverse, including viral hepatitis, alcoholic liver disease, metabolic-related fatty liver, use of liver-damaging drugs or poisons, autoimmune diseases, parasitic infections, hereditary metabolic liver diseases, long-term congestion or cholestasis Among them, viral hepatitis and alcoholic liver disease are the main causes of liver cirrhosis in our country.
"The early symptoms of liver cirrhosis are often not obvious and are easily ignored. When symptoms appear, they are often in the middle and late stages. Treatment of the cause of early cirrhosis can delay the progression of cirrhosis and even reverse cirrhosis; while late stage cirrhosis The treatment methods are limited and the effect is poor. Therefore, early prevention, early diagnosis, and early treatment are particularly critical." Regarding how to prevent and treat liver cirrhosis, Director Chen Haiou, director of the Department of Infectious Diseases of Hunan Provincial People's Hospital, reminded that people with alcoholism, obesity, long-term use of drugs, and family history of liver disease People should maintain a healthy lifestyle, such as abstaining from alcohol, losing weight, reducing the intake of high-fat and high-calorie foods, not using drugs indiscriminately, having regular physical examinations, and receiving hepatitis B vaccine in a timely manner; for patients with chronic liver disease, active treatment should be provided. Check regularly. If symptoms such as fatigue, anorexia, anorexia, nausea and vomiting, abdominal distension and abdominal pain occur, seek medical attention as soon as possible. Patients with chronic hepatitis B and chronic hepatitis C should actively undergo antiviral treatment and undergo reexamination every 3-6 months.
