What is Liver Cirrhosis?

Cirrhosis refers to scarring of the liver which results in abnormal liver function as a consequence of chronic (long-term) liver injury. There are many different causes including infections, alcohol abuse, inherited disorders, and fatty liver.

Typical Symptoms of Liver Cirrhosis

Diagnostic Questions for Liver Cirrhosis

Your doctor may ask these questions to check for this disease:

  • Do you have visible veins on your stomach?
  • Are your nails white around the base?
  • Have you noticed an unusual increase in your breast size?
  • Have you been diagnosed with ascites?
  • Does the swelling leave a dent when pressed for at least 15 seconds?

Treatment of Liver Cirrhosis

Medical care for patients with cirrhosis has several aims: (1) treating the underlying cause of liver disease when possible, (2) preventing cirrhosis-related complications, and (3) treating the symptoms of cirrhosis. Cirrhosis is a chronic disease, and patients with cirrhosis require ongoing medical care with a physician specializing in the care of patients with liver disease. In severe cases, a liver transplant may be the only effective treatment.
