Patient's question:
Doctor, my friend has been experiencing loss of appetite, fatigue, nausea, dry heaving, rapid weight loss, in the liver and upper right abdomen, aversion to greasy food, upper abdominal pain, and sometimes dizziness for the past few weeks.Doctor's answer:
Fatty liver is a prevalent type of liver disease with a high incidence rate, and people who are overweight are more prone to developing it. In the early stages, fatty liver doesn't show obvious symptoms and is not easily detected. If patients with fatty liver do not receive timely treatment and complete recovery, it can easily progress to liver cirrhosis or even liver cancer. So, how should fatty liver be treated? Experts advise that when fatty liver patients use medication, they must be cautious and not blindly trust small advertisements. They should choose medications that are suitable for their specific condition and cause, and consult a doctor at the hospital before taking any medication.
