Cirrhosis (scarring of the liver) can cause fluid to collect in your abdomen (ascites). You may also develop swelling in your ankles or legs (edema).

All causes of liver disease can lead to scarring in the liver. Cirrhosis is when the liver is so scarred it becomes nodular (lumpy) and no longer functions normally.

Liver disease can cause a brain disorder called hepatic encephalopathy. When your liver is unable to remove toxins absorbed from your intestines, the toxins build up in your body. They can travel to your brain and impair your brain function.

Anyone with cirrhosis is at risk of developing liver cancer, also known as hepatocellular carcinoma. Surveillance for HCC is vital because when detected early, this type of cancer can be successfully treated.

HRS is a serious condition that decreases blood flow to your kidneys and can lead to kidney failure.

Some conditions like autoimmune hepatitis, primary biliary cholangitis and primary sclerosing cholangitis develop when your immune system mistakenly attacks your liver. This leads to liver damage.

Liver problems can develop from an inherited gene abnormality. Genetic liver diseases include Wilson disease, hemochromatosis, and alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency.

Viral hepatitis infections are some of the most common causes of liver disease. Hepatitis B and hepatitis C can cause chronic infections leading to inflammation and scarring in your liver.

Alcohol is the most common cause of liver disease throughout the world. Excessive amounts can cause acute inflammation of the liver, leading to jaundice. Long-term alcohol consumption can cause cirrhosis.

Disruptions in your metabolism can cause excess fat to build up in your liver (fatty liver disease). This leads to liver damage that can look very similar to liver disease caused by alcohol. People with obesity are more likely to have fatty liver disease than the general public.
