Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
Taking an overdose of acetaminophen is likely to cause a liver damage. The swelling you are having in your abdomen is likely to be due to fluid accumulation due to the liver damage. You need a medical assistance and need to attend an ER as early as possible.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
