Should be examined: Mild fatty liver is common in the U.S., and can happen in people who have high triglycerides, metabolic syndrome, pre-diabetes, obesity, etc... People usually don't feel anything at the liver, so if one feels pain, swelling, bloating, burning, etc..., a doctor can evaluate to see if there is also another problem, such as gall bladder disease, pancreatitis, an ulcer, a cancer, etc...

Liver pain: The liver covers a large area in your upper abdomen so you'll have to be more specific. Does it hurt in the middle? Or on the right side? It could be heartburn, gastritis, gallstones that you are getting discomfort from. It is hard to tell without knowing where your pain is. Try prilosec, and if it helps it was likely gerd. If not, see your doctor.
