Suggest Treatment For Mild Cirrhosis Of The Liver

No further alcohol even with mild cirrhosis
Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome,
I'm sorry to say that if you already have some cirrhosis, drinking any further alcohol can cause further inflammation and scarring. Even the presence of a small amount of alcohol at this point can be damaging.
As you may know, cirrhosis is the scarring of the liver that happens because of chronic liver disease. Scar tissue blocks blood and bile flow through the liver and keeps it from working properly.
The liver performs many vital tasks which we are not able to live without. This includes getting rid of toxins in the blood and helping control infections. It is also vital for processing many if not most medications. It is vital for blood clotting. It also produces bile that helps your body absorb the nutrients and fat-soluble vitamins it needs.
If you have cirrhosis from any cause, it is vital to not drink any alcohol to prevent further damage to the liver.
I imagine this is not what you want to hear. I hope this information helps. Please let me know if I can provide further information.
