Cirrhosis of the liver: causes, symptoms, and treatment
Page Contents
According to the Mayo Clinic, cirrhosis is a severe inflammation of the liver caused by various liver illnesses and conditions such as hepatitis or excessive drinking. When the liver is injured for whatever reason, it attempts to heal itself, resulting in the formation of scar tissue. Cirrhosis worsens, causing scar tissue to form and the liver to become unable to function properly.
Damage caused by cirrhosis cannot be reversed, but it can be managed if detected early. According to MEDizzy, common symptoms include fatigue, bleeding, bruising, nausea, swelling, weight loss, itchy skin, yellow discoloration in the skin and eyes, fluid accumulation in the abdomen, spiderlike blood vessels on the skin, redness in the palms of the hands, pale fingernails, clubbing of the fingers, confusion, drowsiness, and slurred speech.
Cirrhosis is more common in people who consume a lot of alcohol, are overweight, and have viral hepatitis. Avoiding the problem can be accomplished through reduced alcohol consumption, a healthy diet, maintaining a healthy weight, and lowering the risk of hepatitis.
