HELLO,
i can understand your concern.
a course hepatic echotexture can be due to hepatitis, any stasis of bile or cirrhosis etc. since it is a mild change it is not much of a concern. should heal on its own.
i would suggest a ct scan of the abdomen to know further about the cause and further management can be done accordingly.
do get back with the ct findings.
feel free to ask further queries.
thanks for choosing HCM.
