Liver Toxicity - 10 Early Signs of Liver Problems and a Solution!
Early signs of liver problems is an essential part of maintaining a holistic health lifestyle. Your Liver can function and filter your bodies toxins without symptoms until it is 2/3’s damaged! Without a fully functioning liver, both your health and lifestyle will be compromised. Luckily your liver is capable of repairing itself, so providing that any problems are spotted early, and are not allowed to develop and worsen, your liver is likely to make a full recovery. So you need to be on the alert. Here are some symptoms of liver problems to be on the lookout for.
# 1 – Skin discoloration – Jaundice
Jaundice is A build-up of Bilirubin which is a bile pigment – bile being a substance manufactured by your liver to help with digestion. Your body cannot evacuate this Bilirubin which then accumulates in your bloodstream and results in your skin taking on a yellowish hue. This yellowing can also affect your fingernails, the tips of your fingers, and your eyes too.
# 2 – Skin sensitivity
Skin Rashes, Hives and sensitivities are a symptom of liver trouble. Keeping the skin moisturized will help, but the condition will continue and will probably worsen until the underlying cause (the problem with the liver) is identified and addressed.
# 3 – Changes in the color of Urine and/or Stools
If you notice any changes to the color of your urine when you go to toilet, this too may indicate you have a liver problem. All the time that you are drinking sufficient fluids, your urine should be pale and more often than not, clear. If your urine becomes consistently dark in color, (caused by excess Bilirubin in your bloodstream), this is an indication you may have a problem with your liver.
It can also affect your stools. A malfunctioning liver may result in your stools becoming pale, bloody, or black.
# 4 – Changes in the Abdominal Area
You may begin with experiencing pain or cramps in the lower abdominal area. This can quickly be transformed into feeling gassy and bloated. If left unaddressed a condition known as Ascites (a buildup of fluid in the wall of your abdomen) may develop and must be drained via use of a catheter.
# 5 – Feelings of fatigue
Feelings of weakness tiredness or chronic fatigue mean that you have a problem with your liver as your body is working harder to survive. The result is that your body will be telling you it needs more rest. If these feelings of fatigue are present along with any other symptoms that are set out here, then you should immediately go and see your doctor for a diagnosis.
# 6 – Acid Reflux and Vomiting
Frequent indigestion and acid reflux, which can lead to bouts of vomiting.
# 7 – Loss of Appetite
Although we are listing the loss of appetite as one of the early signs of liver problems, it frequently doesn’t appear until the liver disease has progressed somewhat. If you experience loss of appetites along with any of the other symptoms discussed here, then you should go and see your doctor as a matter of urgency, as it could be a sign that you have a more advanced form of liver disorder.
# 8 – Retaining Fluids
Fluid retention affects the lower legs, ankles, and feet, which become swollen. When the swollen skin is pressed down, an imprint will be left for a few seconds after the pressure is released.
# 9 – Diarrhea
Because the liver plays such an important part in the digestion process, if it begins to malfunction, this can result in diarrhea.
# 10 – Feeling generally unwell
Although this particular symptom may be hard to pin down, feeling generally unwell can be one of the signs of liver problems. An underperforming liver will not be filtering toxins out of your bloodstream as efficiently as it should, and this can manifest itself in many ways, including skin problems, headaches, and feelings of irritability.
Looking after your liver is a essential when it comes down to following a holistic health lifestyle. Your liver has the ability to repair itself, providing that any damage is spotted early, and the correct avoiding action taken.
