Cirrhosis disease is a late-stage liver infection in which healthy liver tissue is replaced with scar tissue and the liver is permanently damaged. Scar tissues keeps your liver from working properly. Multiple liver diseases and infections injure the healthy liver cells so cell death and inflammation starts in lever. All this is followed by cell repair and at last tissue scarring as a result of the repair process.
The scar tissue blocked or lower the flow of blood through the liver and due to this liver’s ability to process hormones, nutrients and natural toxins (poisons). It is also reduced the production of proteins and other substances made by the liver. Late-stage of cirrhosis is life-threatening as well
