A member asked:

What is a good way to cure minor liver problem caused by alcoholism?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Abstain from Alcohol: I am not sure what you mean by minor liver problems. One's liver can repair itself, if the damage is not too severe. A blood test can be used to determine the extent of the damage and also how much one's liver is able to return to normal functioning.
