The main causes of fever in patients with hepatic ascites are lowered immunity, electrolyte disorders and peritonitis. In case of hepatic ascites caused by hepatocellular carcinoma, because of the existence of liver tumor, tumor fever will also appear in itself, and so on.
1. Reduced immunity: liver function is seriously damaged in liver ascites, immunoglobulin synthesis is reduced, and at the same time, because of nausea, poor appetite and other symptoms, ultimately leading to reduced immunity of the organism, and it is easy to have fever.
2. Electrolyte disorders: liver function is severely impaired in hepatic ascites, resulting in abnormal metabolism of protein, fat and other nutrients and electrolyte disorders, which will also cause symptoms such as fatigue and vomiting, and also cause fever.
3. Peritonitis: Due to portal hypertension resulting in hepatic ascites, bacteria in the intestines will enter the abdominal cavity, resulting in peritonitis, which will cause fever, abdominal pain and other symptoms.
In addition, patients with hepatic ascites have low immunity and are prone to combining with pneumonia and urinary tract infections, etc. It is recommended to consult the doctor in time, improve the examination to clarify the cause of the disease, and then treat it in time.
