Recovery of liver after liver abscesse
In 2016 I was diagnosed with right lobe liver abscesse (pyogenic) with 105 ml of pul in it (at 19 years of age). After a minor surgery a catheter was placed in liver for extraction of pus and was there fir 10 days and after completing the course was removed. Now it nearly 3 years since the surgery took place my question is that will my live ever fully recover from the infection or will I have to live with it forever and is there any chances of any type of liver infections further in my life. The main reason for abscesses according to the hospital report was my full blown alcoholism since the age of 16 but after treatment I have fully abstained from alcohol.
