Suggest Treatment For Fatty Tissue In Liver
my son was recently sent to Children s Hospital cuz of his liver and spline was inflamed. They sent him home saying he was constipated and had fatty tissue on liver so far treatment of that they gave him ibuprofen and laxative for his constipation. since then his pain has gotten worse and nothing has seem to be getting better just worse. the pain is in his abdomen area, however he has had a bowel movement everyday since we left the hospital so I do not find that tooth pain and symptoms are caused of being constipated what else causes pain and his symptoms

Hi,
There are two main types of fatty liver disease so treatment depends on this: Alcoholic liver disease and Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. You can get alcoholic liver disease from drinking lots of alcohol. It can even show up after a short period of heavy drinking, other causes are obesity and hepatitis B and C.
If you have alcoholic liver disease and you are a heavy drinker, quitting is the most important thing you can do. Talk to your doctor about how to get help. If you don't stop you could get complications like alcoholic hepatitis or cirrhosis. Even if you have nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, it can help to avoid drinking. If you are overweight or obese, do what you can to gradually lose weight -- no more than 1 or 2 pounds a week.
Eat a balanced and healthy diet and get regular exercise. Limit high-carb foods such as bread, grits, rice, potatoes, and corn. And cut down on drinks with lots of sugar like sports drinks and juice.
I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us in every time. Wish you a good health.
Kindly regards,
Dr. Ivan R. Rommstein
