A member asked:

Can you tell me what can cause you to feel like your liver is swelling and have pain in that area of the body?

Dr. Romanth Waghmarae answered

Specializes in Pain Management

RUQ Pain: The liver is painful usually when it suddenly expands. A slow increase in liver size usually does not hurt. More commonly RUQ pain is Gall Bladder. If there is concern then see a doctor so that an Ultrasound can be obtained.
