my father is having hepatitis B infection and liver problem. His stomach has swollen tightly and amount of urine output is reduced. He feels difficulty to eat anything. always he prefer liquid food in small amount. Treatment is going on but the result is same. what should be done now.
1) hepatitis-B infection, tight stomach due to collection of fluid in stomach, less urine output-all suggest possibility of end stage liver disease2) generally it requires liver transplantation but evaluation of patient for eligibility is required from which doctors can get idea about probability of good outcomes following transplant3) during waiting period for transplant or non-candidacy for transplant, patient require supportive medical treatment to support liver function, to minimize symptoms, to improve quality of life4) end stage liver disease is not curable by medications which had limited role as life supportive measure only
