5. Headaches and General Fatigue
Although not directly associated with pain in a specific organ, liver problems can also cause headaches and extreme fatigue. The liver plays a crucial role in removing toxins from the body, and when it doesn’t function properly, these toxins can accumulate, affecting the brain and causing a feeling of confusion, frequent headaches, and debilitating fatigue.
This condition, known as hepatic encephalopathy, can cause diffuse headaches and a feeling of general malaise.
It can appear in several areas or just one.
Pain related to liver problems can appear in various parts of the body, from the abdomen to the back, shoulders, and joints.
If you experience persistent pain in these areas along with other symptoms such as jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes), abdominal swelling, fatigue, and confusion, it is important to consult a healthcare professional for a complete evaluation of your liver function. Early treatment of liver disease can help prevent serious complications and improve your quality of life.
