Options For Treating Liver Disease & Liver Damage

Liver damage and liver diseases occur for several reasons. Symptoms of liver disease include weakness, fatigue, unexplained weight loss, nausea, vomiting, and jaundice, which is a yellowing of the skin. The skin and the whites of eyes become yellow because of an elevated level of bilirubin in the bloodstream. An individual may also experience pain in their upper left quadrant of their abdominal area. Unfortunately, these symptoms don’t always occur until the later stages of liver disease. Routine testing via a complete blood count and liver function tests done annually can help patients and their doctor monitor liver health.
