Patient's question:
I was carefully diagnosed with mild fatty liver, but my body has always been fine, no symptoms at all. Moreover, the doctor who gave me the thorough check-up didn't prescribe any medication or suggest treatment, as mild fatty liver doesn't require treatment. However, I'm worried it might develop into other diseases, and that would be problematic.Doctor's answer:
Having fatty liver indicates that the body has experienced liver damage again, with abnormal fat decomposition and metabolism. If left untreated, it can affect the decomposition and metabolism of other substances and lead to the dysfunction of various organs in the body. The incidence of fatty liver is gradually declining, which is closely related to people's dietary and nutritional status and lifestyle. However, it is not advisable to believe that fatty liver is simply a result of excessive nutrition or a normal phenomenon in the human body. Without proper care and treatment, fatty liver is certainly not curable. This disease is not easy to recover from. Patients should maintain a positive mindset and face it with optimism, as only this can boost their confidence in combating fatty liver and believe that recovery is achievable.
