A member asked:

Once a liver infection has spread to the body can the infection be cured?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Liver infection: Depends upon the type of infection to which you may be referring. Generally, it is infection elsewhere which spreads to the liver. If you provide more details might be of further help. Good luck.
