Inflamed liver question's?

You need to be seeing either a gastroenterlogist

or a hepatologist. Having an inflamed liver is

anything but normal. There are a number of

different causes...here are some of them:

alcohol consumption, medication toxification,

chemical exposure, bilary problems (which

included blockage of the bile ducts or gallstones or infections or mal formation of the bile ducts),

mushroom poisoning, viral Hepatitis (which

includes HEP A,B,C, etc.), auto immune

disease, fatty liver disease, hereditary conditions. And there are others.

Stopping the cause of the inflammation and

being treated with medication can help the

liver cells to heal. However, if the cause

is not able to be stopped and the inflammation

continues on...it can lead to cirrhosis of the

liver in which scar tissue forms inside the

liver from the death of the liver cells. This is

a progressive disease that has no known cure.

The doctor can usually tell if the liver is

enlarged, which comes from the inflammation,

by pressing on the upper right portion of your

abdomen, just under your rib cage. He can

also do blood testing of the liver enzymes and

also the liver function tests to see if there may

be damage to the liver cells and if the cells

of the liver are functioning as they should.

The doctor usually tests with an ultrasound

then to determine whether the liver truly is

enlarged and by how much...also to see if

there maybe a gallbladder problem ...and

to check the kidneys which is located to the

back side behind the liver and down a little

lower. Pinched nerves in the back area

can also cause pain in the back area where

you said.

If you ever cooked liver for supper, you noticed

that it is very smooth in texture and of a normal

size. When the liver has inflammation, it

enlarges in size and become spongy in texture.

When the liver cells have die off and scar

tissue forms, it decreases in size and starts to

take on a hard texture.

It is very important that you see one of the

specialist mentioned above to be sure exactly

what is going on. All liver patients are told

to not drink alcohol and be sure and

tell the doctor all medication you are taking

(this includes over the counter, herbs, herbal

teas, vitamins, minerals, and drugs prescribed

by other doctors).

Best wishes to you and I hope this information

is of help to you. You definitely need a

further work up on this.

Inflamed liver question's?

I was told by two different doctors that my liver is in inflamed. They checked me for hepatits c and it came back negative. They never could really give me a straight answer as to what causes this sort of thing to happen. I was wondering if anybody has the same problem as me or knows what sort...

Chronic liver inflammation and cirrhosis are the most common reasons behind primary liver cancers. It is known as the silent killer, and generally gets diagnosed in the advanced stages, which presents a poor prognosis. Hence the need for early diagnosis and prompt treatment.

My friend who used to suffer from Inflamed liver , she had treated by many ways based on the information on the book .As a result of becoming heathier and more feel comfortable. you can see the book in oder to understand more at: http://adola.net/go/fattyliver-bible/

Hope that it is useful for you!

from my experience with my dad, your liver can cause your abdomen to grow in size (he looked like he was 9 months pregnant for a long time!). as far as those pains go, you might want to get that looked at again. were you given a ct scan at all?

the pain that you've been having in your back sounds a lot like what i've been having as well. i had it checked out and was told that it was misplaced pain from my kidneys (i have stones).

you may want to be checked for other liver diseases. you'll probably have a lot of blood and urine tests, but if you're worried, i'd say it's worth it.

Go for kettlebell workouts — an average burns 400 calories in 20 moments.

Get the hepatitis vaccine A and B shots every 6 months, and I am also using lecithin capsules, you can get them at GNC or Vitamin Shop, they promote liver and reproductive health.

Make sure you have at least seven hours of sleep each night. Being tired makes for skipped workouts and further snacking.
