Do cirrhotic nodules grow?

Nodules that appear in cirrhosis are likely to grow locally or even throughout the liver when not observed with treatment for the cause. Alcoholic liver, fatty liver, or hepatitis virus infection can lead to the appearance of nodules in cirrhosis. If timely dietary adjustments or anti-hepatitis or liver-protecting treatments are not carried out, the nodules may not only develop and grow further, but may even lead to a change in the size or shape of the entire liver, and there is also a risk of progression to liver cancer. Cirrhosis with nodules is a more serious situation, we should make timely adjustments to life and diet, and if hepatitis causes cirrhosis, we should also carry out anti-hepatitis hepatoprotective treatment for hepatitis B and C infections to prevent cirrhosis with nodules from further progression. It is recommended that cirrhosis nodules should consult a doctor in time to find out the cause of the disease and then carry out targeted dietary adjustments or corresponding drug therapy.
