3. Stool Changes
If you experience trouble with the movements of the bowels, you will suffer from constipation. It becomes difficult to defecate and causes great discomfort. Constipation can sometimes happen to a healthy person too. If it is chronic, you should pay attention to this. IBS or, in other words, irritable bowel syndrome, is a condition when constipation alternates with diarrhea. This may be accompanied with abdominal pain and a sudden need to pass bowel movements. Another thing that tells that your liver is damaged is when you notice that your stool is pale in color.
4. Loss of Appetite
Loss of appetite is an abnormal condition. If a person does not want to eat, he starts losing weight. People may avoid eating for various reasons. Those whose liver is damaged avoid food, skip meals or eat insufficient amount of food. This affects all inner organs, liver included, since the body is not provided with all necessary vitamins, minerals and nutrients. If the patient has degenerated to the point of severe weight loss and his liver is beyond repair, the person’s only hope would be a transplant.
