Liver injury may be caused by trauma, alcohol, viral infection and other factors.

Causes of liver injury

1. Trauma

When the liver is directly affected by external force, it may cause substantial damage to the liver, and even severe bleeding may occur.

2. Alcohol

is highly irritating and needs to be metabolized by the liver after entering the body. Drinking for a long time will increase the burden on the liver, thus causing liver damage.

Causes of liver injury

3. Virus infection

When the liver is invaded by virus, it may cause hepatitis A, hepatitis B, hepatitis C and other viral hepatitis. Due to repeated replication and release of the virus into the liver, it may lead to activation of the immune system of the body, so that normal stem cells are damaged, thus causing liver injury.
