Can a coarse liver cause abdominal pain?
Patient: hi i had an ultrasound today as ive been experiencing severe abdominal pain at night for about 4mths they told me i had what looks like a coarse liver and to go to doctors in a week for my results, i am really concerned please can you tell me what this means? Doctor: Hi,Thanks for posting your query.I am Dr.R.K and I am pleased to assist you.Coarse liver does not cause pain. Only when liver gets enlarged and its covering gets stretched you feel pain in the right upper abdomen.Coarse echoes of liver is seen if there is any scar tissue in liver as in cirrhosis .I hope that answers your question.Regards.
