Alcoholic liver injury generally cannot be recovered if it progresses to the stage of cirrhosis; in the case of alcoholic fatty liver, it can be recovered in a few months in the short term, or it can take years to recover in the long term. Alcoholic fatty liver disease is usually caused by heavy drinking. If the patient’s condition is mild and he or she stops drinking in time after the disease is detected and maintains a healthy diet, the recovery time will be shorter, and he or she can return to normal within a few months. If alcoholic fatty liver disease is more severe, it may take years to recover. If the disease develops into cirrhosis, the liver function is seriously damaged, and it is usually difficult to recover, but the progress of the disease can be controlled after standardized treatment. Patients with alcoholic liver injury should actively cooperate with doctors for treatment and at the same time strictly abstain from alcohol in order to improve the prognosis.
