Ascites

Home / Ascites

Disease Name: Ascites

Introduction:

Ascites is the accumulation of fluid in the peritoneal cavity, the space between the lining of the abdomen and the organs inside. It is commonly a complication of liver disease, especially cirrhosis, but can also result from heart failure, kidney disease, or cancer. The fluid buildup causes abdominal swelling and discomfort and can lead to severe complications if not treated. Management of ascites typically involves treating the underlying cause and draining the fluid when necessary.
Dr. Manoj Kocheta is widely regarded as one of the best Ayurvedic doctor in Pune, Mumbai and Nagpur, known for his holistic healing and effective natural treatments.

Causes of Ascites:

Cirrhosis of the liver (most common cause)

Heart failure (congestive heart failure)

Kidney disease (nephrotic syndrome)

Cancer (particularly of the liver, ovaries, pancreas, or colon)

Tuberculosis

Pancreatitis

Hypoalbuminemia (low protein levels in the blood)

Peritoneal disease (e.g., peritoneal carcinomatosis)

Symptoms of Ascites:

Abdominal bloating or swelling

Weight gain

Shortness of breath (due to pressure on the diaphragm)

Abdominal discomfort or pain

Loss of appetite

Nausea and vomiting

Diagnosis of Ascites:

Physical examination (e.g., checking for fluid wave or shifting dullness)

Ultrasound (most common method to confirm fluid accumulation)

Paracentesis (a procedure to remove fluid and analyze it for cause)

Blood tests (to check liver function, kidney function, and protein levels)

CT or MRI (to assess the extent of fluid and underlying causes)
