Grasso liver: pain under the right coast

The pain on the right side, just below the coast, is one of the most common symptoms of the fatty liver.

Surprisingly, although most of those who suffer from liver steatosis feel this pain under the right coast, most doctors still tell us that it is impossible and that “the liver does not hurt”.

Exactly the same thing that happened to me when I went to the doctor, before I was diagnosed.

Even after the diagnosis, the doctor insisted that he has no way of hurting me on the right side and that if he really hurt (as if I had some reason to beat the field!) It is not because of the fatty liver.

But it seems that he was not right. Although there are really other health problems that can cause this pain, subsequent investigations have not discovered anything more.

Since then, all the people with a diagnosis of fatty liver that I discussed have told me that they feel this pain on the right side, under the ribs.

So today we will talk about it: one of the most common symptoms of liver steatosis.

The pain is under the normal right coast if you have lived fat?

First of all, no pain is normal: nothing should hurt us. But unfortunately, this type of pain is very common for those who suffer from fatty liver.

Most people feel it as a deaf pain, which comes and leaves. Sometimes it can be heard only for a few minutes, sometimes longer periods.

It can be intensified on the basis of a meal in which we consume foods not admitted with liver steatosis but usually appears and disappears without an apparent reason.

Personally, I had, during the first periods of the disease, before moving on to a healthy diet for the fatty liver a constant pain under the right coast and most of the time rather intense.

Not strong enough to scream of pain, but enough to be very disturbing.

And this pain, as I said, although not normal, is one of the main symptoms of this disease.

Even the doctors who say that the liver does not hurt are not even incompetent. Basically, they are right: the liver itself has no pain receptors, so what we believe is not the liver itself.

But the pain is real! And it seems that the main cause of this pain is the entire liver.

When you suffer from liver steatosis, the liver increases its volume, swelling more or less from the excess fat that is stored there.

Growing up in size, the liver begins to press on other organs next to it or simply “pushes” into parts of the body that should not touch, thus causing pain. You can discover more details (in English) here.

The conclusion is that although the liver itself does not hurt, it is the one that causes these pains and everything is caused by the liver steatosis.

Usually, this pain under the coast feels more intense in the afternoon or evening.

But here the researchers found possible explanations: in the first place, during this period of the day we are usually at home, more relaxed and we simply have more time to notice this symptom.

In addition, the position of the body can have an influence on this pain: when we lie on the back, the increase in the liver can press in various more painful points.

The safest, however, is to do all the tests recommended by the doctor to eliminate other potential causes for this pain (the most common cause, if it is not a fatty liver, being problems related to children).

How to get rid of this pain under the right coast?

Unfortunately, analgesics have little effect when it comes to this pain.

It is also possible to do more long -term damage, because most drugs exert even more pressure on the liver.

So do not take medicines to relieve pain unless the doctor considers! However, they will have no effect!

However incredible, however, the true method that will get rid of this pain is … healing fat.

If you start eating healthy and keep the diet, the pain will begin to improve quickly and disappear completely after a while.

In my case, the pain decreased in intensity and frequency after the first two weeks of diet.

After six months, it was very, very rare – usually only when we ate something unhealthy.

And this has been maintained, unfortunately even today, so many years after the healing of the fatty liver: if I eat something forbidden (usually something very fat), that pain comes to pull the alarm signal and bring me back to the “right path”.

So if you want to get rid of this pain, start eating healthy as possible!

In addition to this method that will help you get rid of pain permanently, there are other things that you can try to relieve the symptoms. Here are the things you can try:

– Change the location, especially if you lie down on your back, it can help you. Stay on the one hand for a few minutes, you could help.

Usually, it is better to sit on the left, but try various positions to see which of them works best in your case.

– The hot compositions can help. Ideally, you have a “bag” from the special ones that are filled with hot water, but a way to heat the area can be useful.

Make sure the temperature is not too high and try not to apply directly on the skin.

Some people do not support the heat in this area at all, especially when it hurts, so it does not insist if it is not nice to apply the warm picture!

– Keep a food diary that hurt you and don’t eat them anymore. I eat chips at any time (very rarely, fortunately), after 15-20 minutes the pain comes. Another good reason not to eat potatoes.

I am convinced that many foods in the black list would have the same effect. So keep track of the work you eat and stop consuming foods that hurt you.

I know that most people expect to receive a magic pill, ready to get rid of pain immediately, but in this case, unfortunately, this is not possible.

But a healthy diet is not difficult to follow and I guarantee you that you will start feeling better very quickly.

Conclusion

As I said, already two weeks after moving to a healthy lifestyle, the pain under the right coast will be expanded … and after only a few months there will be more an unpleasant memory of a reality.

In conclusion I want to repeat: although this pain is one of the most common symptoms of the fatty liver, it does not automatically mean that it cannot be caused by other health problems.

It is very important to speak with a doctor, investigate the necessary to eliminate other possible causes.
