How to self-detect liver disease? The fast pace of modern life has caused many people to have some bad habits and caused liver problems. So many people worry that they also have liver disease. Let me give you a brief understanding of how to detect whether you have liver disease.
How to self-test liver disease 1 1 and jaundice?
The liver is an important organ for bilirubin metabolism. When the liver has problems, bilirubin metabolism also becomes a problem. Obstacles such as bilirubin secretion and excretion will lead to an increase in bilirubin concentration. When bilirubin in the blood increases to a certain amount, it may appear as yellow eyes.
2. Liver pain
Generally, the liver will not feel pain, but there are rich pain nerves on the surface of the liver, so severe pain or dull pain may occur when the liver is sick. Generally, it is characterized by pain and discomfort in the right upper abdomen or under the right rib.
3, easy to get drunk
Some people usually drink a lot of alcohol, because a healthy liver can decompose alcohol in time, making people less likely to get drunk. However, when the liver has problems, its ability to decompose and metabolize alcohol is weakened, and at this time, there may be a decline in alcohol consumption or alcoholism.
4. Loss of appetite
Bile can be secreted in the liver, and bile is a necessary factor for food digestion. When there is a problem with the liver, the bile secreted will decrease, and because of liver disease, it will affect the digestion and absorption of food, thus causing symptoms such as loss of appetite, nausea and vomiting.
How to self-test liver disease 2 1 and observe whether the nails are smooth?
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the main muscles and nails of the liver are also part of bones and muscles, and whether the liver blood is sufficient can be expressed from the nails. Under normal circumstances, nails are pink, smooth and shiny, and nails have a certain hardness. When I was in liver blood deficiency, my nails were fragile and easily broken, and they were white or yellow with black spots or white spots of unknown reasons. When the liver is seriously damaged, there will be strip depressions on the nails.
2. Monitor sleep.
From 23: 00 pm to 3: 00 am, the liver meridian is vigorous. At this time, the liver will bleed a lot. If you always wake up and have nightmares at this stage, you should be alert to whether the liver is abnormal. The liver stores blood, which will flow to the liver at rest. As long as the liver is nourished by enough blood and oxygen, it can sleep peacefully all night. When you are in liver-blood deficiency, you will lose sleep, dream more and wake up easily.
3. Abnormal personality and temper.
Losing your temper for unknown reasons, haggling over every ounce, being sensitive and suspicious, crying and sighing all the time indicate that you have liver depression. Anger will be stored in the liver after being angry. When the liver is abnormal, people will have hiccups and chest pain, and in severe cases, menstrual disorder or amenorrhea may occur.
4. Are your eyes dry?
The liver dominates the eyes, and the eyes are nourished mainly by the blood in the liver. Excessive use of eyes will inevitably consume liver blood. The eyes with liver-blood deficiency are not nourished enough, and they are dry and dull. When the liver fire is strong, it will lead to an increase in eye secretions, accompanied by symptoms such as bitter mouth and sticky mouth, dizziness and tinnitus.
What if the liver is not good?
Quit the bad habit of smoking and drinking, try not to stay up late, ensure adequate sleep, eat lightly, avoid eating too greasy, and reduce the time of playing electronic products. Keep a regular routine and relax. Massage Yin Bao point and Taichong point for three minutes every day until you feel local pain, which can dredge the liver meridian.
