News India Live, Digital Desk: Today’s hectic life and bad eating habits have made a disease common, which silently takes up residence in our body. we are talking fatty liver of. This is a problem in which excessive fat gets accumulated in the liver cells. If it is not taken care of on time, it can lead to serious diseases like liver cirrhosis and even liver cancer.

Generally people think that it can be detected only through blood test or ultrasound. But a well-known diabetologist from New Delhi, who has 24 years of experience, has told about some such physical signs, by which you can guess even without any test whether your liver is in danger. Let us know about those symptoms which you should not ignore at all.

1. Feeling tired all the time

Do you feel very tired these days without any particular reason? If you do not feel fresh after waking up in the morning even after getting complete sleep and there is lack of energy in the body throughout the day, then it can be an early sign of fatty liver. When the liver does not function properly, toxins start accumulating in the body, causing fatigue all the time.

2. Mild pain in the upper right part of the stomach

If you often feel slight pain or heaviness in the upper part of your stomach, on the right side just below the ribs, do not ignore it as gas or acidity. Due to fatty liver, the size of the liver increases, which puts pressure on the surrounding organs and pain or discomfort may be felt in that area.

3. Visible changes on the skin

Our liver works to clean the dirt of the body. When it does not work properly, its effects start appearing on our skin as well.

  • Itching: Constant itching in the body without any rash or allergy.
  • Change in skin color: In some people, the skin of the neck or underarms starts becoming darker.
  • Yellowness in eyes: If the problem is becoming serious, yellowness (jaundice) may also appear in the eyes and skin.

4. Sudden loss of appetite and weight loss

If your appetite has suddenly decreased and your weight is continuously decreasing without any effort, then it can be a matter of concern. This may also be a symptom of liver failure. Along with this, some people also feel nausea or vomiting.

5. Swelling in feet and ankles

When the problem of fatty liver reaches advanced stage, the liver reduces the production of protein (albumin) essential for the body. Due to deficiency of this protein, fluid starts accumulating in the body, due to which swelling first appears in the legs, ankles and stomach.

Note: It is not necessary that these symptoms are only of fatty liver. These can also be signs of some other disease. But if you are feeling any of these symptoms, do not take it lightly and immediately consult a doctor so that the right treatment can be started at the right time. Your little awareness can save you from a major disease.
