| Chronic Liver Disease |
| |
| Chronic Liver Disease is a medical condition in
which liver damage has occurred over a period of time. This can happen
because of: |
| |
 |
Prolonged viral infection of the liver. |
|
Drug and/or alcohol abuse. |
|
Inherited and metabolic liver disease. |
|
| |
When there is an ongoing damage to the liver, it
may worsen the liver function. Progressively, the liver becomes hardened
and cannot recover as it normally does.
A hardened liver will be less able to carry out its usual important
functions. |
