Alcoholism (alcohol use disorder) is a chronic mental health condition in which drinking beyond socially accepted levels impairs physical, psychological, and social functioning. It results from a loss of the brain's control over drinking, not from a lack of willpower. Recovery may be possible with professional treatment, so please do not hesitate to ask for help.2026-06-26

Early Detection and Management of Liver Disease
#liver disease, #liver cancer, #cirrhosis, #hepatitis B, #hepatitis C, #fatty liver, #nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, #hepatectomy, #minimally invasive surgery, #early screening, #alcohol abstinence, #lack of energy, #listlessness, #persistent tiredness, #nausea, #feeling about to vomit, #vomiting
The liver is a 'silent organ.' Even as damage progresses, there are no obvious symptoms in the early stage, so fatigue, loss of appetite, and weight loss are often dismissed as minor, and the disease is often discovered only after it has progressed to cirrhosis or liver cancer. Regular checkups are the most important way to protect liver health.2026-06-26

Esophageal cancer is a malignant tumor that develops in the esophagus. It can be difficult to detect in the early stages, and the earlier it is found, the better the treatment outcomes tend to be. Reducing risk factors and getting regular screening are important, and if you have any unusual symptoms, please consult a medical specialist.2026-06-26

Liver Cancer
#liver cancer, #hepatitis, #cirrhosis, #liver cirrhosis, #fatty liver, #silent organ, #liver transplantation, #laparoscopy, #lack of energy, #listlessness, #persistent tiredness
Liver cancer is a malignant tumor that develops in the liver, which is responsible for detoxification and nutrition in the body. The liver is called the 'silent organ' because there is no particular pain even when the disease becomes advanced. By the time symptoms appear, the disease has often already progressed considerably, so please do not judge on your own; be sure to have regular checkups and consult a medical specialist.2026-06-26

Liver Cancer: Key Questions
#liver cancer, #hepatocellular carcinoma, #cirrhosis, #hepatitis B, #hepatitis C, #hepatectomy, #liver transplantation, #Milan criteria, #ascites, #jaundice, #transarterial chemoembolization (TACE)
Liver cancer (hepatocellular carcinoma) is a malignant tumor that develops from the cells that make up the liver. Because there are almost no symptoms in the early stage, it is often found incidentally during health checkups. Regular checkups are especially important for people with chronic liver disease caused by hepatitis B, hepatitis C, or alcohol-related liver disease. The treatment method and prognosis differ depending on each patient's condition, so please consult a medical specialist before making any decisions.2026-06-26

The liver and kidneys have difficulty recovering on their own once they are severely damaged, so transplant surgery may be needed. Because this is a very important, major operation, please consult a transplant specialist thoroughly and receive medical care.2026-06-26
