Should I Be Worried About The Enlargement Of Liver?

I had a USG of whole abdomen. In the report everything is okay except my liver slightly enlarged with bright parenchymal echotexture. No focal lesion noted. IHBR are not dialated. What does it mean?? Do I have any severe problem in my liver? Or I need to do a USG endroscopy for details? Please advice.

Gastroenterologist,  's  Response
Hello! Thanks for putting your query in HCM. I am a Gastroenterologist (DM). It simply means you have fatty liver that is accumulation of fat in liver which in long termis is harmful for liver.
There are many causes of fatty liver disease like high fat diet, hepatitis B/ C, metabolic disorders, autoimmune disorder, alcohol or drug intake etc. So for this you require evaluation and then appropriate management. So I will suggest you to visit a gastroenterologist for evaluation.
I hope I have answered your query and this will help you. If you have any further query I will be happy to answer that too. Remain in touch and get-well soon.
