Clinically, cirrhosis is mainly divided into two stages: compensated stage and decompensated stage, and early cirrhosis usually refers to the compensated stage of cirrhosis. The compensatory stage usually refers to the relatively normal function of the liver, and most patients do not have any specific clinical symptoms in the early stage of the disease. Therefore, early cirrhosis is not considered serious, and even liver function can be maintained in a relatively normal state. It is suggested that in the early stage of liver cirrhosis, go to the hospital for examination, and also combine with the doctor’s opinion to give appropriate treatment, can be given to the compound turtle shell soft liver tablets, Fuzheng Huayu capsule and other drugs anti-fibrotic treatment, to avoid progressive development or progressive aggravation of the condition.

If the disease develops further and liver function decline or portal hypertension occurs, it is likely to indicate that it has entered the decompensated stage, which is difficult to treat, and serious complications such as hepatic encephalopathy may occur at this time, thus affecting the patient’s life expectancy.
