I'm using my profile to talk about medical conditions and preventions. Today I'm talking about a very common and deadly disease: Cirrhosis.

Cirrhosis is a chronic liver disease characterized by the formation of scars (fibrosis) in the liver tissue, resulting from continuous damage to the organ. This damage can be caused by various factors, such as excessive alcohol consumption, hepatitis B and C, autoimmune diseases, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (hepatic steatosis), and exposure to toxins.
