The liver is an amazing, hard working organ, and luckily #we have# #to put# it through plenty of stress before #we have# liver failure. Unfortunately when it fails, #there will be# no option other than removal. It is imperative, consequently, #to listen to# our bodies for the caution signs of liver problem symptoms of stress and execute preventative maintenance before we #look for# indications of liver failure.
An apt analogy of the liver may be to consider it as a roadmap of an extremely condensed, congested city. A roadmap of that city would show large thoroughfares, streets which are main streets, lesser traveled smaller streets, #and finally# a network of small alleyways and side streets. It wouldn't #take a# very large vehicle #to get# stuck in #one of the# narrower alleys or small streets, #and if# it did it would cause all traffic #to take# other routes, putting extra stress on those passageways. What's more, those places shutoff from traffic will be unproductive as long as traffic couldn't get to them. Obviously #the city# could get by having a few #of these# obstructions, but it will harm the vitality and general efficiency of #the city# in general. Eventually too many #of these# closures and #the city# would become gridlocked, forcing things #to a# standstill. In much #the same# means, previous to complete liver failure we'll experience liver problem symptoms that should be rectified before it's too late.
Some of the liver problem symptoms we should be looking for are:
1. Fatty liver disease. Caused by fat molecules known as triglycerides, these can accumulate within the liver cells, mostly in overweight individuals, #as well# as from drinking excessive alcohol. A healthy liver contains little or no fat. Though #some people# exhibit few if any symptoms, most will have liver problem symptoms that may include general low energy or illness, and sometimes discomfort in the upper abdomen area. Other symptoms may consist of itchy skin, bruising easily, and confusion and poor memory. Fat gain within the abdominal area can also be common.
2. Jaundice. This means problems #with the# liver and/or gall bladder with #the production# or transport of bile, #and will# be evident #with the# skin turning a pale yellow or orange, nausea, abdominal distention, fatigue and cold hands and feet. When the tubes that transport bile are closed off by obstructions, jaundice can result.
3. Poor digestion, bloating with abdominal swelling, and nausea particularly after eating fatty foods. The over-taxed liver is not able to cope with #the stress# of this additional workload.
4. Chronic fatigue syndrome. When liver problem symptoms cause exhaustion, #it could be# #because the# blood is loaded with poisons due to an inefficient liver, poisons that should #have been# filtered out of the system. The blood cannot carry the oxygen and nutrients essential for energy production, giving you fatigue. Clean blood also is lighter and therefore flows better, giving you better circulation.
5. Allergic conditions like hay fever and rashes.
6. Reverse tolerance to alcohol. This is a condition where a #person who# is near liver failure can #no longer# metabolized alcohol well, and as a result will get intoxicated on very small quantities.
#The only# real treatment for liver failure #is a# liver transplant. There are a few promising drugs being tested that have some promise to aid regeneration, but they are still #some time# #in the# future. A protective maintenance program to curb liver problem symptoms before they bring about liver failure is our best choice to date.
