Hepatitis (hep-uh-TY-tis) hepar - Greek for "liver" -itis - Greek for "inflammation"
Alcoholic hepatitis is a liver disease caused by excessive alcohol consumption over a long period of time. The liver is responsible for filtering out toxins from the body, including alcohol. However, when the liver is overwhelmed by the amount of alcohol, it can become inflamed and damaged, leading to alcoholic hepatitis. Symptoms of alcoholic hepatitis include jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes), abdominal pain and swelling, fever, and loss of appetite. In severe cases, alcoholic hepatitis can cause liver failure, which can be life-threatening.
The most effective treatment for alcoholic hepatitis is to stop drinking alcohol completely. This can help prevent further damage to the liver and may even allow it to heal. Medications may also be prescribed to reduce inflammation and other symptoms. In severe cases, hospitalization and liver transplant may be necessary. It's important to note that even if a person stops drinking alcohol, they may still have long-term liver damage from alcoholic hepatitis. It's important to follow up with a healthcare provider regularly to monitor liver function and make lifestyle changes to support liver health.
