Liver fatty

[Nihad]

Hi,is there difference between liver fatty and liver inflammation?

[Hidden]

Fatty liver is when too much fat has accumulated in the liver usually due to a poor diet resulting in a person being overweight (especially around the belly) although there can be other causes. Around three quarters of people who are obese have a fatty liver. A fatty liver is considered a harmless condition that is reversible. An inflammed fatty liver is is not considered harmless and has the potential to lead to cirrhosis, liver failure and liver cancer.
