These days a 'silent killer' disease is spreading among the youth. The name of this disease is 'Metabolic Associated Fatty Liver Disease' (MAFLD). In simple language, it can be understood by increasing fat in the liver. Experts say that one in every three youth is suffering from MAFLD. If someone wants to know its symptoms, he can find it out while brushing.
A large amount of fast food, cold drinks, etc. are being consumed by the youth, which is becoming the reason for MAFLD. This disease is also dangerous because if it is not treated, it can have serious consequences. MAFLD is a bit difficult to detect. Because of this, patients are not able to know about this disease for a long time.
Risk of liver cirrhosis
MAFLD is also dangerous because it is difficult to catch. If this disease reaches its last stage, it can lead to liver cirrhosis. When there is damage to the liver over a long period of time and it is not treated, it leads to cirrhosis of the liver, then there is scarring of the liver. During this, your liver will continue to function, but it can stop at any time.
How to know the symptoms of the disease?
UK's NHS Guidance states that the symptoms of cirrhosis can be known while brushing the teeth. Bleeding gums, bleeding nose are its main symptoms. As your liver starts getting more damage. Similarly, other symptoms can also be seen. For example, you will start feeling very tired and weak. Loss of appetite, loss of weight and muscle mass, red spots on your palms, and spider-like blood vessels on the lower and upper extremities are also symptoms.
