If left untreated, cirrhosis can eventually lead to liver failure and life-threatening complications.
What Causes Cirrhosis?
Several conditions may gradually damage the liver over many years.
Common Causes Include:
- Heavy alcohol use
- Hepatitis B or C infections
- Fatty liver disease
- Obesity and metabolic disorders
- Autoimmune liver diseases
- Long-term toxin or medication exposure
In many cases, the damage develops slowly and quietly.
