The liver is a very important metabolic organ in the human body, which can maintain the normal metabolism of hormones and vitamins, and also has the role of digesting food.
In addition, some toxic substances and metabolites in the body also need to be metabolized and decomposed in the liver, with detoxification functions.
However, the liver will also cause liver function to decrease due to some undesirable factors, resulting in a series of uncomfortable phenomena.
If there is no early conditioning, it will lead to impaired liver function, and the probability of some liver diseases will be particularly high.
Therefore, in daily life, once some abnormal symptoms are found, they must be treated and adjusted as soon as possible. So, what are the symptoms of the body when the liver is not good?
1. Non-specific gastrointestinal symptoms
Within 24 hours, the liver can produce a liter of bile, which passes through the bile ducts and is transported directly to the gallbladder. When some food enters the gastrointestinal tract, the gallbladder will contract, and the bile will be discharged to promote the digestion of food.
Once the liver function declines, it is impossible to secrete and excrete bile normally, which will lead to a decline in the overall digestive function, and it is easy to have some symptoms of digestion. For some foods, the digestion rate will become very slow, and there will be repeated inexplicable nausea and bloating.
These gastrointestinal symptoms do not have any regularity, can appear at any time, and may resolve on their own.
2. Abnormal skin changes
If the decline in liver function is not very severe, patients generally do not develop more obvious skin abnormalities.
However, if the rate of decline in liver function is relatively fast, or if you have suffered from liver diseases such as hepatitis and cirrhosis, due to the abnormal detoxification function of the patient's liver, some metabolites and foreign toxins in the body cannot be excreted in time, and they will accumulate in the liver.
And it will enter the skin system with the blood circulation, which will cause some brown pigmentation on the patient's facial skin, or the overall color will become dull and dull.
In addition, due to the decline in the function of the liver to excrete bile, too much bile cannot enter the small intestine, and it will enter the skin with blood circulation, which will cause jaundice symptoms on the patient's skin.
And because there is too much bile in the skin, it will irritate the skin, and it is easy to cause stubborn itching of the skin.
Third, there is a sense of oil aversion
The bile secreted by the liver can promote the rapid breakdown and metabolism of fat in the small intestine.
Once the liver function declines, it is impossible to secrete bile normally, which makes the small intestine abnormal in the decomposition and digestion of fat.
Then when patients eat some greasy foods, they will show a particularly obvious sense of oiliness, and even vomiting and fat leakage will occur.
4. Abnormal bleeding
Due to decreased liver function, coagulation function will be affected, which will cause patients to have abnormal physical bleeding symptoms.
Especially for people with hepatitis or cirrhosis, there will be repeated nosebleeds and bleeding gums, or gastrointestinal bleeding symptoms.
If you are a woman, you will experience increased menstrual flow or prolonged menstrual cycles.
All in all, if the above 4 symptoms are repeated in daily life, and it will be accompanied by fatigue, lack of energy, weight loss or deepening of urine color, as well as spider anvils in the chest, neck and back of the hands, it is generally due to rapid decline in liver function and some liver diseases.
Then, when these symptoms appear, you should be admitted to the hospital at the first time and give corresponding treatment according to the reasons, so as to maximize the maintenance of liver health.
