Hello,

As per my clinical experience, the situation of ascites is related to possible liver damage. In our clinic, we recommend diuretics, maintenance of protein levels, liver supporting agents, dietary measures as per the case requirements. Suggested to consult with all blood tests and ultrasound reports.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
