Fatty liver is a problem that is troubling many people these days. Mainly, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most common chronic liver disease worldwide. People's changing lifestyle and wrong eating habits are the main reasons for this. This condition, associated with obesity and insulin resistance, can grow silently without any obvious symptoms.

Often, there is a delay in recognizing its symptoms, due to which the matter gets out of hand. If it is not identified in time, it can also cause liver failure. Therefore, it is important that its symptoms are recognized in time. Often, some symptoms are seen in the skin when there is fatty liver. In such a situation, today in this article, we will tell you about some such symptoms of fatty liver seen on the skin-
Wrinkles or lines on the skin and neck
Fatty liver disease can increase insulin resistance, which affects the way the body processes sugar. Excess insulin in the bloodstream can trigger a condition called acanthosis nigricans, which causes skin folds, especially on the neck, to become deeper and thicker.
These skin changes are usually mild in the beginning, but over time, they become more visible. If you are overweight and are noticing such changes in your skin, do not ignore them at all.
Itching and burning in the skin
If you have been experiencing burning and itching in the skin for some time, do not take it lightly. This is a possible symptom of fatty liver. According to the Mayo Clinic, fatty liver causes the accumulation of bile salts in the bloodstream, which causes this problem in the skin. This skin problem does not heal easily and sometimes some other symptoms, such as rashes around the mouth are also seen with it.
Swelling on the face
One of the clear symptoms of fatty liver disease includes mild swelling on the face. Advanced liver disease can affect the liver's ability to make proteins, which affects fluid regulation in the body. This can cause the face to appear rounder or puffier than normal. Although swelling alone is not a sure sign, when it is accompanied by other symptoms, liver health needs attention.
