Hi! On my ultrasound the liver is mildly enlarged, measuring 16 cm and shows mild fatty infiltration. No focal lesion is seen. I do not drink, do not eat fatty foods, not obese, not diabetic, cholesterol is normal. What coud cause this problem? Also, I walk almost every day about 1 hour. Recently I started to eat dark chocolate every day two little squares for iron. I kindly thank you for your answer.
HelloYour findings suggests mildly enlarged liver with mild fatty changes. It may be due to many reasons like hepatitis, alcohol intake, obesity,altered lipid profile, medicines,autoimmune causes etc. Fatty liver is reversible condition. Obesity and sedentary lifestyle are its common causes, so these factors should be ruled out. You may need to change your diet and lifestyle. You should a go for brisk walk regularly. It is good that you take healthy diet. Get well soon. Take Care Chat Doctor.
