Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic

See your doctor and make sure you have not injured any internal organ.
It could be dangerous to apply pressure to abdomen

Fatty liver is often related to obesity, Dyslipidemia, Diabetes and so on.
See an Internist / Hepatologist
Do not attempt self medication

Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
