This document discusses cirrhosis of the liver. It begins by defining cirrhosis as a disease where scar tissue replaces healthy liver tissue, preventing the liver from functioning normally. It then lists common causes like chronic alcohol abuse, viral hepatitis, and fatty liver disease. Symptoms in advanced stages are described, such as fatigue, bleeding, weight loss, and fluid buildup. Treatment options aim to limit further damage to the liver through medications, surgery, or addressing the underlying cause of cirrhosis. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle and regular checkups are also recommended to reduce liver damage over time.

Cirrhosis Cirrhosis : is a very difficult disease that occurs when the liver develops a scar. The liver is a large organ belonging to the digestive system.
When a person develops cirrhosis, the fibrous tissue replaces the healthy tissue, preventing the liver from functioning normally. For example, the liver may not be able to produce enough coagulants, making it difficult to stop bleeding when it occurs. The liver may fail to filter (purify) toxins that may accumulate in the circulatory system. Scarring may also lead to high blood pressure in the veins that transport blood from the intestine through the liver (portal hypertension). This condition leads to severe and severe bleeding in the digestive system and other serious problems. Cirrhosis of the liver may lead to death. But treating cirrhosis at an early stage
Causes 1.Chronic alcohol abuse 2.Chronic viral hepatitis (hepatitis B, C and D) 3.Fat accumulating in the liver (nonalcoholic fatty liver disease) 4.Iron buildup in the body (hemochromatosis) 5.Cystic fibrosis 6.Copper accumulated in the liver (Wilson's disease) 7.Poorly formed bile ducts (biliary atresia) 8.Inherited disorders of sugar metabolism (galactosemia or glycogen storage disease) 9.Liver disease caused by your body's immune system (autoimmune hepatitis) 10.Infection, such as syphilis or brucellosis
Symptoms of the disease do not always appear in the early stages of cirrhosis. As for the advanced stages of cirrhosis, a number of symptoms may appear, among :them Symptoms
1.Feeling very tired and wasted 2.Bleeding from the nose and ease of injury 3.Low weight 4.Abdominal pain or feeling tight 5.Yellowing of the skin color (Jaundice) 6.Itching 7.Fluids collect in the legs, which is called "edema, and fluid collects in the abdomen, which is called "dropsy" (or: Ascites) 8.Bleeding inside the stomach or esophagus,the duct that goes from the mouth to the stomach.
Treating It is very important and necessary to treat cirrhosis as quickly as possible. Although treatment can not cure cirrhosis of the liver, it may sometimes succeed in limiting the damage, or prevent other damage to the liver. Treatment may include: drug therapy, surgical treatment and other treatments, depending on the causative agent of cirrhosis and the complications and problems it causes.

There are several steps that can be taken to reduce liver damage and to treat symptoms: 1. Never drink alcohol. 2. Not taking any medication without consulting a doctor. 3. Verify that the vaccines obtained are still effective. 4.Take care to feed low-sodium. 5.Symptoms may appear, sometimes, after the disease has reached advanced stages, only. Therefore, it is necessary to continue to conduct regular medical examinations, including laboratory examinations.
