Fatty liver disease: Three signs on your skin – ‘potentially life threatening condition’
The Mayo Clinic says you should make an appointment with your doctor if you have persistent signs and symptoms that cause you concern.
If you develop severe cirrhosis, stage four fatty liver disease, and your liver stops working properly, you may need to be put on the waiting list for a liver transplant.
There’s not currently any medicine that can treat NAFLD, but various medicines can be useful in managing the problems associated with the condition.
If detected and managed at an early stage, NAFLD can be stopped from getting worse and the amount of fat in your liver can be reduced.
