The liver is sick, does the face know in advance? Doctor: If there are 4 signs on the face, or the liver is "faulty"

The liver is one of the most important organs of the human body, which is mainly responsible for metabolism and detoxification. If the liver is damaged, many problems may occur in the body. Therefore, we must do a good job in the prevention of liver diseases.

There is a saying that the liver is “sick” and the face will be known in advance, that is, the damage of the liver will be shown by the signs on the face.

In fact, this statement is correct. The doctor also reminds us that if there are the following four signs on your face, you may be prompted to check your liver.

1. Dark complexion and acne

The liver usually helps the body to decompose and metabolize toxins in the body, so as to maintain endocrine balance. But when the liver is damaged, the body's internal toxins can not be excreted, which will lead to metabolic disorders, so the face will become very dark, and even long spots.

Moreover, after the liver function declines, the hormones of the corpus luteum will be unbalanced, and the skin on the face will secrete too much sebum, leading to the continuous appearance of acne and pimples.

2. Dry and red eyes

From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, the liver meridian connects to the eyes. When there is a problem with the liver, the eyes will appear very intuitive performance, such as dry and red, increased secretion and so on. If the patient only feels red and dry eyes, it may be caused by excessive liver fire.

But if you have blurred vision, red, swollen and painful eyes, you must see a doctor in time. At this time, the liver problem may be very serious.

3. Whites of eyes turn yellow

Generally speaking, the whites of the eyes of normal people are all white, and occasionally some light red blood streaks can be seen, but some people have the whites of the eyes yellow and look very abnormal.

In fact, this may be caused by damage to the liver. Some people often stay up late, resulting in insufficient time for the liver to expel toxins. These toxins will continue to deposit on the liver, causing the whites of the eyes to turn yellow, and the whole body will gradually turn yellow in severe cases.

4. Facial allergy

During the normal operation of the liver, antibodies are produced to help the body resist allergens. However, when the liver is damaged, liver function continues to decline, may be unable to resist allergens, resulting in frequent facial skin allergy, itching unbearable, so that patients are very painful.

If the above four signs appear on your face, it is likely to be caused by liver damage. It is best to go to the hospital for examination and treatment in time.

If you want to maintain the liver and prevent liver diseases, you'd better do the following two things:

1. Stay away from alcohol

Alcohol is known as the "first-class carcinogen", which can cause great damage to the liver. The main reason is that the liver produces a large amount of acetaldehyde in the process of decomposing and metabolizing alcohol, which can make normal liver cells die rapidly, causing inflammation.

So it's best to stay away from alcohol and try to drink less or no alcohol.

2. Avoid staying up late

Staying up late is the most harmful to the liver. Only after the human body enters sleep, the liver can be repaired and detoxified, so as to obtain regeneration. People who often stay up late constantly consume liver blood, which makes the liver bear a huge burden, and also affects the detoxification of the liver, eventually leading to liver damage, so we must avoid it.

In short, as the most important detoxification and metabolic organ of the human body, the role of the liver can not be ignored. We must pay attention to the protection of the liver. If we find the four signs mentioned above on the face, we must check and treat as soon as possible to prevent the liver from being injured again.

At the same time, we should also do a good job in protecting the liver, try to stay away from alcohol and avoid staying up late. We can also adjust our diet structure to help reduce the burden of the liver. We can do some exercise properly at ordinary times to help the liver detoxify and make the liver more healthy.
