Hello. Thanks for writing in.
Fatty liver is a very common condition, due to deposition of abnormal amount of fat within liver tissue, and maybe accompanied by increase in liver size.
It is usually asymptomatic and common causes are alcohol intake, obesity, diabetes, high cholesterol, some medications, to name a few.
If you have any of the above problems kindly correct them and adopt healthy lifestyle changes.
Take care & do not worry.
