I have reacently found out my 15 year old daughter has a fatty liver . We were given instructions for medication and told her pains would go away. Its two weeks later, and three days ago she lost her appetite completely and hasn t gotten it back yet. She s coughing hard and constantly and also is having troubles breathing . She can feel bruises all along the lower part of her rib cage. Should i take her to a doctor immediately or let it go on?
HI Thanks for posting your query Fatty liver is due to metabolic disturbances of the lipid metabolism If left untreated it will end up in fibrosis and ultimately cirrhosis of liver I would suggest you take your daughter to a gastroenterologist and get her investigated and treated Hope this helps Am available for any followup queries there are no further doubts, do accept this reply and rate it Wishing Your Daughter A Speedy Recovery
