What does the body feel like with ascites?

When patients have ascites, they usually feel different degrees of abdominal distension, oliguria, and in severe cases, dyspnea and activity limitation. 1. Different degrees of abdominal distension: Because there is a large amount of fluid in the peritoneal cavity, which also occupies the whole space of the abdominal cavity together with the abdominal organs, there is pressure on the abdominal wall and abdominal organs, and due to the difference in the amount of ascites, the patients will feel different degrees of abdominal distension. 2. Less urination: As the body fluids accumulate in the abdominal cavity to form ascites, the liquid discharged through the kidneys will be less, so it will form the feeling of less urination. 3. Difficulty in breathing and limited activities: when a large amount of ascites, it will produce some pressure on the chest cavity, affecting the patient’s respiratory activities, resulting in dyspnea and limited activities. It is recommended that when patients have ascites, they should go to regular hospitals in time, and under the diagnosis of doctors, effective programs should be formulated for treatment according to the specific performance of patients’ conditions.
