Many men instinctively tend to ignore pain and put off going to their doctor.
Needless to say, this is not a good strategy and liver pain in particular, should be taken seriously.
What Does Pain in your liver Feel Like? Liver pain is typically made apparent by a dull ache or stab in the upper right part of the body, and it can often originate under the rib cage.
Pain in the liver can often coincide with pain in the back and whether the pain is dull or sharp, it can last a long time.
It is easy to confuse other types of pain with liver pain, particularly kidney pain and abdominal pain.
Liver pain is specifically caused by pain that originates in or around the liver.
Examples of What Can Cause Liver Diseases Various things have been proven to be a cause of pain in the liver area, including peptic ulcer, irritable bowels and gallstones.
Anyone who suffers from ascites, cirrhosis, chronic hepatitis or gastritis is also at risk from liver pain and more likely to experience it.
Severe alcoholism can also lead to this type of pain can also be an indication of a serious medical condition such as cancer or leukemia.
Symptoms of Liver Pain Some symptoms commonly experienced along with pain in the liver include a feeling of general fatigue, difficulty breathing and a feeling of pain under the right shoulder.
Also common are problems eating, itchiness on the skin that seems to have no obvious cause and with men, a swelling in the testes.
Surgery and Liver Pain Having an intestinal bypass operation performed can also cause liver pain, because once the surgery has been performed, lipid vacuoles often develop in the hepatocytes, which can help to create a fatty liver.
This condition is somewhat similar to that which often develops in a person who is a chronic alcoholic and the amount of pain that it causes is about the same.
Treatment for Liver Disease Liver disease can be effectively treated fairly inexpensively, often by simply cutting back on the amount of alcohol consumed.
Most doctors will advise someone who has disease to reduce their consumption of alcohol, before suggesting further treatment.
Unfortunately, in extreme cases, there can be no suitable treatment for a diseased liver and the only real solution is to wait for a transplant.
In this case, you are lucky if you receive a new liver before your existing liver has ceased to function altogether, although once a new liver is in place, the pain should diminish.
