Have Echogenic Liver, Gallbladder Removed, Abdominal Pain,evidence Of Benign Hemangiomas, BMI 31. Any Treatment?

I was told from a CT and ultrasound that I have a "slightly echogenic liver". And there is also evidence of "most likely benign hemangiomas". I have had my gallbladder removed due to gallstones and continue to have upper abdominal pain. My BMI is 31, I am not diabettic and do not drink. Should i be concerned? Do I need further treatments or test?

Thanks for query on HCM.
Benign hemangiomas does not require any active treatment at present.
Keep regular check up for liver.
Upper abdominal pain is most like due to indigestion,it usually occurs after gallbladder removal.
Your bmi 31 indicates obesity grade 1.
You have to take care for your general health.
Take simple,high fiber diet,drink more liquids like buttermilk,fruit juices,vegetable soups.
Avoid oily,spicy,high calorie diet.
Try to reduce your weight.
Go for exercise,yoga,swimming,cycling.
Keep in touch with your doctor.
