People with cirrhosis may experience cramps due to several factors, including electrolyte imbalances, particularly low levels of potassium and magnesium, which can occur as a result of liver dysfunction and fluid retention. Additionally, the accumulation of toxins in the body due to impaired liver function can lead to muscle fatigue and cramps. Dehydration from diuretics used to manage fluid retention can also contribute to cramping. Overall, the combination of these factors affects muscle function and can lead to painful cramps.
