In this plan
Purpose, Prevention & Protection
- I understand this is high pressure in veins that carry blood from my digestive organs to my liver.
- I know liver scarring is the most common cause; blood clots, vessel problems, infections, or heart disease may also cause it.
- I know this pressure can cause enlarged veins, bleeding, belly fluid, a large spleen, low platelets, or confusion.
- I treat my liver, vein, or heart condition and follow my plan to prevent serious complications.
