Patient's question:
I've been feeling abdominal pain these days and often burping. I thought it was poor digestion, but after a thorough check-up at the hospital, I found out I have fatty liver. However, I don't have any specific symptoms. Could you tell me what the specific symptoms of fatty liver are?Doctor's answer:
The clinical manifestations of fatty liver are diverse. Mild fatty liver often lacks clinical diagnostic symptoms and is easily overlooked. Some may only experience fatigue, while most patients with fatty liver are overweight, making it even harder to detect mild subjective symptoms. Therefore, fatty liver patients are often discovered incidentally during health check-ups. Moderate to severe fatty liver has symptoms similar to chronic hepatitis, such as poor appetite, fatigue, nausea, dry vomiting, weight loss, and dull pain in the liver region or upper right abdomen. In addition to treating fatty liver, it is recommended that patients pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a cheerful mood to enhance their physical condition and slow down the recovery process.
