Is the low-density lesion in the right liver lobe serious?

During the examination, if a low-density lesion is found in the right lobe of the liver, it is generally a liver cyst. Of course, it may also be a hemangioma or some other space-occupying lesion. If the patient's liver function is normal and there is no discomfort in the body, a follow-up examination can be conducted after a period of time. No medication is required for treatment. Just focus on a good diet.

How to care for patients with liver cysts? Solitary cysts and polycystic livers are the most common types of liver cysts. Solitary liver cysts usually have no symptoms. If the cyst is large, compression symptoms may occur, such as abdominal pain, nausea, diarrhea, etc. The most common site of cyst occurrence is the right liver. Multiple hepatic cysts are also known as polycystic liver. More than half of the patients have polycystic kidney disease. Polycystic liver disease often invades the entire liver. In a few patients with polycystic liver disease, the lesions are limited to one lobe or half of the liver. Surgical treatment is only considered when the liver cyst grows to a certain size and affects health, such as causing malabsorption, or complications such as cyst rupture and infection. If you experience acute severe abdominal pain, vomiting blood or black stools, you should go to the hospital immediately. In normal times, you should be careful to avoid collision with the right intercostal space and right upper abdomen to prevent cyst rupture. Simple polycystic liver disease has a good prognosis. In a group of cases, no patient's polycystic liver disease led to death or deterioration of health. One-third to one-half of polycystic liver diseases are accompanied by polycystic kidney diseases, which can cause renal failure and even death. If there is no abnormality in the kidneys, it is very fortunate.

The dietary therapy methods for patients with liver cysts are as follows: 1. Fish eggs. This traditional Chinese medicine prescription for treating liver cysts is suitable for those with damp-heat in the liver and gallbladder, which is mostly caused by long-term drinking and those who like to eat fatty and sweet food. They have symptoms such as sallow complexion, fatigue, preference for lying down, bitter and greasy mouth, turbid urine, and thick yellow tongue coating. Use 30 grams of Houttuynia cordata and 5 grams of Artemisia capillaris to boil water, remove the residue and keep the juice, add a peeled duck egg, cook until it is done, then eat the egg and drink the soup, once a day. 2. Tremella and duck egg custard, take 10 grams of Tremella, 1 fresh duck egg, and appropriate amount of rock sugar. Soak the white fungus in warm water, remove impurities, wash it, then put it into a pot and add appropriate amount of water to stew it; beat the duck eggs into a bowl, stir evenly, and pour them into the stewed white fungus porridge; continue to stew the white fungus and duck egg liquid until it boils, and finally add rock sugar, cook it for a while, then serve.
