Liver injury may be related to liver trauma, pathogen infection, long-term drinking, drug action and other factors.
1. Liver trauma such
as blow, extrusion, high fall injury and other reasons, can lead to indirect impact on the liver, and damage.
2. Pathogens infected with
hepatitis A virus, hepatitis B virus, etc., can cause damage to normal liver cells after entering the liver.
3. Long-term drinking
alcohol contains a lot of ethanol, which has toxic effects on liver cells.
4. Drug action such
as isoniazid, rifampicin, erythromycin and other drugs, in the metabolic process can produce adverse effects on liver cells, and thus cause liver damage.
