‘I am newly diagnosed with cirrhosis. Can it be reversed?’
Indian Express·2h ago·Hope
What Happened
Liver cirrhosis diagnosis can feel overwhelming. While advanced cirrhosis causes permanent scarring, early detection offers hope. Early-stage cirrhosis may be partially reversible through proper treatment and lifestyle changes. Managing root causes like alcohol cessation, infection control, and diet improvement can slow progression. Advanced cases may require liver transplant, with patients living 10-20 years post-transplant with proper care.
