What are the symptoms of hepatomegaly

The main clinical symptom of hepatomegaly is pain in the liver area, which is mostly vague, stabbing or distending. Patients with an enlarged liver mainly experience swelling and discomfort in the liver area, while a small number of patients may experience severe pain, but it is relatively rare. If the liver is severely damaged, there may be fever and jaundice. In addition, patients may have clinical symptoms such as fatigue, anorexia, nausea, loss of appetite, vomiting and bloating. Symptoms may vary depending on the cause of the disease. Therefore, the causes of hepatomegaly should be clearly defined, such as viral hepatitis, inferior vena cava obstruction, right heart failure, constrictive pericarditis, etc., which can cause hepatomegaly. Therefore, if the patient has hepatomegaly, he should go to the hospital for examination in time, and after clarifying the cause of the disease, carry out targeted treatment.
