People get very nervous at the mention of cirrhosis. In fact, early identification of the presence of cirrhosis is an important step in preventing further development of liver disease.

If you have a history of chronic liver disease, or there are liver disease patients in your family, please pay attention to your facial color. If the facial color is earthy, or cyan, and gets heavier as time goes by, then you should be alert to the occurrence of cirrhosis.
