How can we judge whether the liver is healthy?

Judging whether the liver is healthy or not needs to be carried out in many ways. Clinical manifestations, imaging examination and normal liver function are all important indicators to judge whether the liver is healthy or not.

The liver plays a very important role in our body. It not only has weak functions, but also has many functions such as secreting bile, synthesizing protein, storing energy and metabolizing toxins. When our liver has problems, these functions will also appear corresponding obstacles, leading to the emergence of clinical manifestations.

1. Do you often have symptoms such as fatigue and loss of appetite? The liver is the largest digestive gland in human body. When liver problems occur, the earliest manifestations are loss of appetite and lack of food, especially for some greasy foods, which will be manifested as disgust, nausea and vomiting. In addition, due to the weakening of digestive ability, patients will have symptoms such as abdominal distension and belching. Secondly, there will be physical fatigue, which can be manifested not only physically, but also psychologically. Even if you have enough sleep and rest, you will feel tired and weak.

2. Poor complexion: For some patients with liver cirrhosis and hepatitis, there will be obvious skin color deterioration, mainly dull and dull complexion. Normal people's skin color is mainly ruddy and shiny, but when there is a problem with liver function, the quality of skin will deteriorate.

3. Liver pain: The liver is located in the right upper abdomen. When there are acute hepatitis, liver cirrhosis and other diseases, patients will have pain in the liver area, mainly dull pain, but when the inflammation is more critical, it can also be manifested as severe pain.

4.b-ultrasound: B-ultrasound is an economical and effective auxiliary examination method to judge whether the liver is healthy or not. B-ultrasound examination can focus on the examination of liver morphology, which has certain diagnostic value for fatty liver, liver cirrhosis and liver inflammation. Therefore, if you want to judge whether your liver is healthy, in addition to the above symptoms, you can also start with B-ultrasound.

5. Liver function test: If the health of the liver is judged from the outside by B-ultrasound, then the health of the liver is judged from the inside by liver function test, such as the degree of liver cell damage, the items of bile secretion and excretion of the liver, and the synthetic function of the liver. Therefore, Xiaoke suggested that after the B-ultrasound examination, the liver function should be examined again, so as to make the state of the liver completely clear.

Whether the liver is healthy or not is closely related to our life. When a person has a good lifestyle, a good diet and a long-term positive and optimistic mental state, it is very beneficial to the health of the liver.
