Introduction
Signals of liver problems include loss of appetite, edema, and pain in the liver area. It is important to seek timely medical evaluation at a hospital and receive appropriate treatment based on the underlying cause. Follow your doctor's instructions carefully when taking oral medications such as Losec tablets and Danshu capsules. In addition, liver problems may also cause dark yellow urine, which results from increased levels of bilirubin in the urine.
Signals indicating liver problems include decreased appetite, edema, and pain in the liver area. It is important to seek timely medical evaluation and receive appropriate treatment based on the underlying cause.
1. Decreased Appetite
When the liver is impaired, bile secretion and the ability to digest fats are usually affected, leading to common symptoms such as厌食 (loss of appetite), nausea, and reduced appetite. Under a doctor's guidance, medications such as compound glycyrrhizin tablets or hepatoprotective tablets may be taken orally. A light diet is recommended in daily life, along with moderate intake of protein-rich foods like milk and fish, which can effectively supply abundant protein to support recovery.
2. Edema
Liver dysfunction leads to reduced synthesis of albumin, and in severe cases, results in decreased plasma colloid osmotic pressure. When blood plasma leaks into the subcutaneous tissues and mucous membranes, edema occurs. Medications such as mannitol tablets or furosemide tablets may be used under medical supervision for treatment.
3. Liver Area Pain
Inflammation in the liver often causes pain in the liver region. It is essential to follow medical advice and take medications such as lesaikex tablets or Danshu capsules orally.
Besides the above, liver problems may also lead to dark yellow urine, caused by increased levels of bilirubin in the urine.
