How long can you live with ascites and vomiting blood

Liver cirrhosis is a common disease that occurs in many people. At the same time, the occurrence of cirrhosis will show many symptoms. If effective treatment is not taken in time, it will lead to ascites, vomiting blood, etc. Some people think that they will not survive long when they develop symptoms such as ascites, vomiting blood, etc. In fact, there are many factors that affect the life span of patients with cirrhosis. Let us learn about them together.

How long can a person with ascites and vomiting blood live? Factors that determine how long a person can live:

The first point is related to whether timely treatment is possible: if vomiting blood due to cirrhosis can be stopped in a timely and effective manner, and if the portal pressure can be lowered through a very reasonable diet and treatment, it can effectively alleviate risk factors such as varicose veins, and it is entirely possible to prolong the patient's life cycle and greatly improve the patient's quality of life; otherwise, it may lead to serious symptoms such as hemorrhagic shock and hepatic coma, threatening the patient's life.

The second point is related to whether the diet is appropriate: In addition, dietary therapy is also the most important part of preventing upper gastrointestinal bleeding in cirrhosis, especially for patients with portal hypertension and patients who have vomited blood. Strengthening dietary management is a good measure to prevent bleeding and re-vomiting blood. Patients with cirrhosis and vomiting blood should pay attention to soft, easily digestible, nutritious and comprehensive foods in their diet, and avoid hard, rough, crisp foods, so as not to puncture the tortuous venous plexus, causing bleeding again and aggravating the patient's condition. Therefore, a reasonable dietary structure is a key factor in preventing cirrhosis and vomiting blood.

The third point is related to the adjustment of mentality: for patients with cirrhosis and vomiting blood, the mental burden often seems to be heavier, and the emotions are very nervous and fearful, but the quality of emotions is closely related to the immune function of physical skills. Therefore, it is necessary to actively maintain a good and optimistic attitude and be able to face the disease with an open mind, which can greatly improve the patient's immune function and ability to resist the disease, which is very helpful to the patient's prognosis.

Note: If patients with cirrhosis have symptoms of vomiting blood, they must not panic. They must receive treatment according to the above introduction. This way, they can control the disease and will gradually recover. Therefore, patients do not need to worry too much.
