Patient's question:
I recently feel that when I take naps in the evening, I always feel extremely thirsty. Moreover, sometimes I notice that my liver isn't feeling very comfortable, and occasionally I experience severe anorexia. I'm worried that I might have fatty liver disease because I am quite overweight and don't engage in much physical activity. I don't know what the clinical diagnostic symptoms of fatty liver disease are.Doctor's answer:
The stratification of fatty liver disease requires a liver ultrasound. Causes of fatty liver disease: alcohol consumption, starvation, malnutrition, obesity, diabetes, corticosteroids, tetracycline. Alcohol consumption is a common cause of fatty liver disease, and it is impossible to clearly distinguish the cause. Clinical manifestations of fatty liver disease may be asymptomatic, or may include fatigue, discomfort in the liver area, fullness, or even pain, abdominal pain, poor appetite, facial acne, etc. Stratification of fatty liver disease: 1. Mild fatty liver: B ultrasound shows increased near-field echoes and no significant decrease in far-field echoes, with the tubular structures within the liver still visible.
