When the liver is not working well, toxins can build up in the bloodstream. This may contribute to headaches, fatigue, and a general feeling of being unwell, rather than pain in one specific spot.
Why Liver Pain Is Often Hard to Notice
The liver itself has very few pain-sensitive nerves. Many symptoms come from surrounding tissues or from the effects liver problems have on the rest of the body. This is why liver disease can progress quietly before noticeable discomfort appears.
When to Pay Attention
Ongoing pain or discomfort—especially on the upper right side of the body—combined with symptoms like tiredness, nausea, appetite changes, or yellowing of the eyes or skin should never be ignored. Early attention can make a big difference in managing health issues.
