What are the ways to improve cirrhosis of the liver

Cirrhosis can be improved by protecting liver function, reducing liver burden, and targeting complications. 1. Protect liver function: for cirrhosis patients, must pay attention to protect liver function, first of all, we should understand the cause of cirrhosis, actively remove the cause of cirrhosis, such as hepatitis, cirrhosis, should be anti-hepatitis virus treatment, which is very important. If it is alcohol-induced cirrhosis, alcohol cessation is the first priority. 2. Reduce the burden of liver: maintaining enteral nutrition can reduce the burden of liver, if carbohydrate energy supply is insufficient in cirrhosis, the body will consume protein for energy supply, which will increase the metabolic burden of liver, so enteral nutrition is the best way for the body to get energy. As long as the intestinal function is still possible, enteral nutrition should be increased and parenteral nutrition should be reduced. Be careful to use drugs that damage the liver, and avoid the use of traditional Chinese medicine or health products with unclear effects. 3. Treatment of complications: For patients in the decompensated stage, such as the combination of ascites, diuretics can be used, such as: furosemide, spironolactone and so on. When the effect is not good, therapeutic laparotomy can also be carried out to relieve. If combined with rupture and bleeding of esophagogastric fundus varices, endoscopic ligation treatment is feasible. However, all of the above treatments should be carried out under the guidance of specialized physicians. Cirrhosis patients must consult a doctor whether in the treatment or diet, under the doctor’s advice to regulate, so as not to aggravate the condition.
