A member asked:
Can mild fatty liver cause discomfort under right rib cage area?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: In case your fatty liver causes enlargement of your liver this might cause some discomfort in that particular area especially with some movements or running, so you need to check your liver's size. But there are other causes of discomfort in that area like gallbladder stones, etc. I recommend you to seek a medical check.
