What does coarse liver texture mean?

Thickening of the liver texture is considered to be chronic hepatitis or drug-related liver damage. Another manifestation of early cirrhosis is that the patient may also have clinical symptoms associated with pain in the right upper abdomen, malaise, loss of appetite, and also weight changes. In severe cases, liver function abnormalities may be combined with an increase in transaminases and even jaundice. Laboratory tests will also clarify the diagnosis, as many patients are secondary to chronic viral hepatitis, and screening tests for infectious diseases will be positive, in which case treatment should also be actively pursued. The main focus is on antiviral and liver protection, symptomatic treatment, and staying away from the environment of tobacco and alcohol. In daily life, it is important to take high protein foods and foods rich in vitamins. Patients with drug-related liver damage should actively discontinue their medication and pay attention to regular review of abdominal ultrasound.
