Can Fatty Liver be Cured?
What is Fatty Liver?
Fatty liver is a condition where fat builds up in the liver. This can happen due to various reasons, including obesity, diabetes, high cholesterol, and excessive alcohol consumption.
There are two main types: alcoholic fatty liver disease (AFLD) and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Most people with fatty liver don’t have symptoms. Some may feel tired or have pain in the upper right side of the abdomen. In severe cases, it can lead to liver damage.
Early detection and proactive management are key to preventing serious liver damage. Regular check-ups and adhering to a healthy lifestyle can help maintain liver health and prevent complications.
