How would you know your damaging your liver by drinking?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Alcohol Liver damage: An obvious sign of liver damage from alcohol consumption is your skin having a yellow coloring. Increasing abdominal size may indicate liver damage. Some will experience gastric distress and even throwing up blood from esophagel varices (dilated blood vessels) if you find any of these, see your doctor and stop drinking as soon as possible.
