Liver abscess is generally said to have a pustule (soac) on the liver. If it is caused by bacteria, it is called bacterial liver abscess; if it is caused by parasites, it is called amoebic liver abscess. Among them, bacterial liver abscess is more common, so we focus on the former. There are three kinds of patients who are prone to liver abscess: one is the patient with intrahepatic bile duct stones, how the intrahepatic bile duct stones cause liver abscess (described in the article "Top Ten Common Problems About Intrahepatic Bile Duct Stones"); the second is diabetes patients; The third is people with poor resistance. These three kinds of people are very easy to breed bacteria, bacteria run to the liver, rooting and sprouting, causing bacterial liver abscess.
