When cirrhotic patients have raised right abdomen and swollen feet, they need to consider various possibilities such as hepatic ascites, portal hypertension, etc. They can choose interventional therapy, release ascites, and can also be relieved by supplemental diuretics.
1. Interventional therapy: As cirrhosis will cause different degrees of fluid accumulation or portal hypertension during the aggravation and development of the disease, it may lead to the phenomenon of lower limb edema. Therefore, interventional therapy can effectively reduce the pressure of portal vein, so as to relieve the symptoms of edema or high blood pressure.
2. Release of ascites: patients with cirrhosis need to consider the phenomenon of severe ascites after the appearance of right abdominal bulge, and the symptoms of abdominal compression can be relieved through regular release of ascites.
3. Diuretics: because cirrhosis will cause the body’s reabsorption of body fluids and circulatory dysfunction, so it will lead to a large amount of body fluid accumulation, which will lead to ascites, edema of the lower limbs and so on. For this phenomenon, diuretics can be taken to effectively promote fluid metabolism, such as furosemide, hydrochlorothiazide and so on.
Cirrhosis patients should consult the doctor in time after the emergence of ascites or lower limb edema, and the drugs need to be used under the guidance of the doctor.
