1. Yellow skin and whites of the eyes

Yellow skin and whites of the eyes are signs of fatty liver on the face due to the accumulation of bilirubin waste in the liver. As bilirubin levels increase, the skin and eyes of the patient may turn yellow.

Over time, the color may also change from yellow to green, due to a green pigment in bile called biliverdin. The yellow color of the skin may be less noticeable in people with dark or brown skin, but the whites of the eyes will still be yellow.

2. Rash around the mouth

In people with chronic liver disease such as fatty liver disease, the body cannot absorb certain nutrients effectively, typically zinc. Therefore, people with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease are deficient in zinc.

A complication of zinc deficiency is dermatitis, which often manifests as skin irritation around the mouth. Similar to a rash, these small, fluid-filled bumps appear densely.

3. Frequent itching

According to experts, when people have fatty liver disease, it can lead to itchy skin, including on the face. The main cause is due to excess bile salts in the body. However, scratching often does not help relieve pain and can also make the irritation worse. In this situation, you should go for a health check as soon as possible for timely treatment.

4. Red spots appear on the face

If you see red spots on your face, it means that your liver is fatty and may have red spots under the skin that look like spider webs, also known as spider veins. In particular, this condition is due to damage that occurs when the capillaries just below the skin surface dilate.

In this situation, you should go for a health check as soon as possible, and have a positive treatment direction to protect your health.
