Hi and welcome to HCM. Thanks for the query.
There are man ypossible causes and additional tests are required to define the ilness. It may be caused by viral hepatitis, cirrhosis or biliary stone and first step should be ultrasound and viram markers check. Also, fatty liver may go with diabetes and this is treated with dietary changes and lipid and sugar regulation. So lipid profile should be checked as well.
I hope I have answered your question.
Wish you good health. Regards
