Fatty liver disease indicates extra fat deposits in the liver which is also known as hepatic steatosis in scientific terms. Heavy drinking is one of the major causes of fat build-up inside liver cells, makes it hard for the liver to work but you can get fatty liver disease even if you don’t drink alcohol at all or drink limited. 

There are two types of fatty liver disease categories according to the Best homeopathic doctor in Chandigarh:

• ALCOHOLIC FATTY LIVER DISEASES

Alcoholic fatty liver can be prevented and usually gets better when you stop drinking alcohol. If the alcoholism continues, ALD can cause serious problems like:

• The enlarged liver doesn’t cause any symptoms but can show pain or discomfort in the upper right side of the belly.
• Alcoholic hepatitis is typical swelling in the liver that causes fever, nausea, vomiting, belly pain, and jaundice (yellow skin and eyes).
• Alcoholic Cirrhosis is a buildup of scar tissues in the liver causing the same symptoms as alcoholic hepatitis along with :

(1) Fluid buildup in large amount in the belly (ascites)

(2) High blood pressure in the liver  (Portal Hypertension)

(3) Bleeding in the body

(4) Confusion and behavioral changes

(5) Enlarged spleen

(6) Liver failure (fatal)

According to the doctors in the Homeopathic clinic in Chandigarh alcohol-related fatty liver disease usually occurs first and can get worse, becoming alcoholic hepatitis over time turning into alcoholic cirrhosis. 

• NON-ALCOHOLIC FATTY LIVER DISEASE (NAFLD)

There are two different types of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease

Simple fatty liver: This means that there is fat in the liver, but inflammation in or any damage in the liver is not detected. It doesn’t get worse or cause any problem in the organ and most people with NAFLD simply have fatty liver.

Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH): This is much serious than simple fatty liver, which means inflammation in the liver. The inflammation and liver cell damage with NASH causes more serious problems such as fibrosis and cirrhosis, which are liver scarring and liver cancer, about 20% of people with NAFLD have Nash.
