A member asked:

Are there natural drugs to take to treat liver injury?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Joseph Pfeifer answered

Specializes in Trauma Surgery

No: The liver actually heals quite well if not too severely injured. The worry is the potential for massive blood loss. In liver injury, we mostly wait it out if there is no bleeding.
