Cirrhosis of the liver is a common, yet serious condition affecting the liver.
What happens in cirrhosis is normal tissue in the liver is replaced by scar tissue leading to loss of liver function. Since the liver is a vital organ and plays an important role in metabolism, any damage to the liver affects all other systems as well.
The most common cause of Cirrhosis is alcohol consumption for prolonged period of time. It can also be caused secondary to hepatitis and gall stones.
Common symptoms of cirrhosis are flatulence, low grade fever, weight loss, jaundice and anemia.
There is not much available as treatment option in the conventional system of medicine.
If diagnosed, in the initial stage, further damage can be arrested by making lifestyle changes. Alcohol consumption has to be stopped immediately.
Though the damaged tissue cannot be regenerated, at least the normal tissue can be preserved with the help of natural herbs.
All those who are suffering from Cirrhosis should try natural products for this condition.
