Care & MonitoringUnderstanding Chronic Liver Disease
Chronic liver disease develops gradually over months or years and often progresses silently until significant damage has occurred. It is commonly associated with cirrhosis, where healthy liver tissue is replaced by scar tissue.
This scarring reduces liver function over time, affecting essential processes like detoxification, digestion, and protein production. Early diagnosis and long-term management are critical to slowing disease progression and improving quality of life.
Liver Functions
- Removes toxins and waste from the body
