Complications of liver disease
Liver disease affects the way blood flows in the liver, as well as how it measures hormones, poisons and medications. The liver also produces proteins and other important substances. The symptoms of liver disease are nausea, weight loss, and increased wounds. Cirrhosis is a confusing disease that may need treatment by different experts. These problems include:
Liver disease can lead to:
Ascites:
Entrance hypertension is a condition that causes swelling and liquid to accumulate in the lower and mid-body due to increased weight in the bloodstream.
Hepatic Encephalopathy:
When the liver fails to eliminate poisons from the blood, it can cause a loss of mental work.
Hypertension of the veins that bend the liver (entrance hypertension).
Cirrhosis slows down the normal progression of blood in the liver. This increases the pressure on the veins that carry blood from the spleen and digestive tracts to the liver.
Growing in the legs, midsection and abdomen
Ascites and edema can be caused by the increased weight of the entry vein. Ascites and edema can also be caused by the liver’s inability to produce enough blood proteins.
